Abstract
This study was performed to evaluate the rodent repellency and antimicrobial activity of natural oils. Thirteen natural essential oils were evaluated for repellent efficacy against rodent feed intake suppression activity. Salvia sclarea (sage), Cinnamomum zeylanicum (cinnamon) Cymbopogon citratus (lemon grass), and Syzygium aromaticum (clove) showed the best repellent efficacy among tested natural oils. Antimicrobial activity against Gram-negative (four strains) and Gram-positive (four strains) bacteria were evaluated using four natural oils, which showed high efficacy on the rodent repellent test. Syzygium aromaticum showed antimicrobial activity against all tested bacteria and Cymbopogon citratus, Cinnamonum zeylanicum, and Salvia sclarea showed antimicrobial activity against some tested bacteria.
