Antibacterial Activity of Picea mariana Essential Oil against Selected Animal Pathogens and Insecticidal Activity against Megabruchidius dorsalis
Keywords:
Picea mariana essential oil, Megabruchidius dorsalis, in vitro, vapour phase, antimicrobial and insecticidal effect.Abstract
Black spruce has been used healing balms, due to the powerful antimicrobial and antiviral properties of the oil. These benefits have made black spruce an extremely popular ingredient for detergents, meaning that using the essential oil in your own personal cleaning routine can be an effective way to eliminate microorganisms. The objective of our work was to evaluate the antimicrobial and insecticidal activity of Picea mariana essential oil. The antimicrobial activity was evaluated against the Gram-negative bacteria Escherichia coli, Salmonella enterica, and Yersinia enterocolitica, and the Gram-positive bacteria Enterococcus faecalis, Listeria monocytogenes, and Staphylococcus aureus by the disc diffusion method. In addition, antimicrobial activity was determined under in situ conditions on pear and potato models. Insecticidal activity was determined against Megabruchidius dorsalis using different concentrations of the P. mariana essential oil. The best antimicrobial activity of P. mariana essential oil was found against Escherichia coli under in vitro and in situ conditions. Insecticidal activity was detected at the highest concentrations of 50 and 100 %. The results of our experimental work indicated that P. mariana essential oil has good antimicrobial and insecticidal properties and is a suitable agent against Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria, as well as against insect M. dorsalis.
