Introduction: Many bacteria have evolved resistance to conventional antibiotics as a result of their widespread usage. This means that to treat an illness, new antibiotics must be created regularly. Increased Diseases have historically employed essential oils (EOs) to treat or cure infectious infections, despite antibiotic resistance. Many of these essential oils have been tested for antibacterial action in the laboratory, and a considerable number of EOs compounds have been found to suppress the development of bacterial spores.
Aim: This work is carried out to see if essential oils can have a therapeutic function on bacterial growth. Several bacterial samples were resistant to various antibiotics.
Materials and Methods: The specimens were collected and transferred under aseptic circumstances to the Microbiology Laboratory. A sterile loop was used to collect the clinical samples, which was then placed into a transportable media. The materials were gathered in an aseptic environment. The disc diffusion method was used to test antibiotic susceptibility with EOs.
Results: The bacteria E. coli, Streptococcus sp., Pseudomonas sp., and Klebsiella sp. were all found. When their antibacterial powers were tested against EOs, cinnamon and arugula oils were shown to be rich sources of essential oils with diverse antibacterial activities.
Conclusion: These essential oils appear to have structures and mechanisms of action that inhibit bacterial growth.
