아로마테라피에도 널리 이용되는 라벤더, 패츌리, 로즈마리, 유칼립투스 등의 허브를 이용하여 식품의 천연보존제로서의 항균활성의 특성에 대하여 알아보았다. 프랑스산 로즈마리추출물의 경우 C, albicans ATCC 10231에 대한 MIC는 29.1 mg/mL로 나타났으며 B. subtilis ATCC 6613과 E. coli ATCC 25922에 대한 MIC는 14.5 mg/mL로 나타났다. 프랑스산 로즈마리와 미국산 라벤더의 추출물은 40에서 121$^{\circ}C$ 범위에서 열 안정성을 나타냈으며 pH 안정성 실험에서는 중성에 좋은 안정성을 나타내었다. 액체 배양시 프랑스산 로즈마리와 미국산 라벤더의 추출액을 첨가하여 피검균의 생육억제 실험을 행한 결과 액체배지 20mL에 대해 2.9mg의 허브추출물을 첨가한 경우에 생육억제효과를 나타내었다.

The reason that aromatherapy began to draw attention again as the alternative therapy is because the essential oils that are used for aromatherapy not only allow the human body to maintain homeostasis but also have an effect on curing a mental feeling of fatigue and because these efficacies and effects are proceeding with being proved scientifically. Also, with coming to be high in a voice of concern about severally side effects that the modern medicine and the synthetic chemistry have, the aromatherapy came to be paid attention as the replacement therapy that can substitute for and supplement this. In particular, at the time of requiring a study on a substance to substitute for this after having been announced in Japan for 1998 a risk of Zincpyrithione that is being used as a component of dandruff treatment, it is thought that the aroma oil that was known for having an anti-dandruff effect has a merit of being easy in a user's access, thus it will be effective in curing the symptom of dandruff. Accordingly, this study conducted the following experiment in a bid to examine whether the aroma oil has the anti-microbial effect on the actual malassezia. First of all, it measured the minimum concentration of aroma oil in which the growth of malassezia is inhibited, by carrying out MIC(Minimum Inhibition Concentration) test in terms of anti-microbial activity against Malassezia furfur KCTC 7744 while using oils of Patchouli, Rosemary, Lavender, and Tea tree among aroma oils that are being used for dandruff treatment. As a result of that, Tea tree oil has the most excellent anti-microbial activity, and the measurement result of anti-microbial activity was shown in order of Lavender oil>Rosemary oil>Patchouli oil. Next, it carried out the is actually eased by applying Tea tree oil directly to the scalp of dandruff. In consequence of the experiment, the massage of Tea tree oil indicated the result of relieving the symptoms of dandruff such as scale, itch, pain, inflammation, and sebum, and among these symptoms of dandruff, it was shown to be most effective in easing itch. Especially, this clinical experiment was indicated that the massage of Tea tree oil has the most effect on relieving itch of targets with a dry-skin type who had no experience of dandruff treatment.
