Abstract

Essential oils are fragrant oils extracted from the leaves, stems, peels, petals and roots of aromatic plants cultivated by natural means or using organic agricultural techniques. Essential oils have commonly been used as antibacterial and antifungal agents. In the present study, essential oil was extracted from lisianthus (Eustoma grandiflorum [Raf.] Shinn.) and tested for antifungal activities against three eumycetes (Penicillium pinophilum, Chaetomium glogosum and Aspergillus niger). Lisianthus essential oil showed high antifungal activities against three eumycetes, especially against Aspergillus niger, for which the resulting minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) was 0.005 mg/ml. In addition, the extracted essential oil was shown to have antimicrobial activity against ten intestinal pathogenic bacteria (Escherichia coli, Salmonella typhimurium, Klebsiella pneumonia, Staphylococcus aureus, Bacillus cereus, Listeria monocytogenes, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Bacillus subtilis, Enterococcus faecalis and Vibrio parahaemolyticus) according to the disc diffusion method and was also shown to exhibit strong antibacterial activity against an additional three pathogenic bacteria (Bacillus subtilis, Listeria monocytogenes and Vibrio parahaemolyticus). These results indicate that lisianthus essential oil could be used as an antibiotic against harmful bacteria that produce intestinal illnesses. From the present study, we suggest that lisianthus extracts can be utilized as potential antifungal and antibacterial agents and for the development of pharmaceutical and cosmetic products.

에센셜 오일은 자연에서 성장하거나 유기농법으로 재배된 방향성 식물의 잎, 줄기, 껍질, 꽃잎, 뿌리 등에서 추출한 방향유를 말하며, 천연 물질로써 항균, 항진균 등의 효과를 가진다. 본 연구에서는 리시안셔스(Eustoma grandiflorum (Raf.) Shinn.)를 이용하여 에센셜 오일을 추출하여 생활 속에 흔하게 존재하는 3종의 진균 Penicillium pinophilum, Chaetomium globosum, Aspergillus niger에 대한 항진균 활성을 측정하였다. 리시안셔스에서 추출한 에센셜 오일은 항진균 활성을 나타냈으며 특히, A. niger에 대해 높은 항진균 활성을 보였으며, 최소 억제 농도(MIC)의 결과는 A. niger에서 0.005 mg/ml로 나타났다. 추출된 에센셜 오일은 대표적인 10종의 병원균(Escherichia coli, Salmonella typhimurium, Klebsiella pneumonia, Staphylococcus aureus, Bacillus cereus, Listeria monocytogenes, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Bacillus subtilis, Enterococcus faecalis, Vibrio paragaemolyticus)에 대한 항세균 효과를 측정하였으며, 디스크 확산법을 이용하여 측정하였다. 리시안셔스에서 추출한 에센셜 오일은 병원균 B. subtilis, L. monocytogenes, V. paragaemolyticus에서 강력한 항균 작용을 나타내었다. 이러한 결과는 리시안셔스에서 추출한 에센셜 오일이 장내 병원균에 대한 항생제로 사용 가능함을 나타내고 있다. 본 연구를 통해 리시안셔스 추출물이 의약품 및 화장품을 개발하는데 있어 잠재적인 항진균제 및 항세균제로 사용될 수 있을 것으로 사료된다.
