Is it just me or the 'effective' oils are NOT mentioned by name? :-)

Dedy

From: JULIE GRIFFITHS <<... Essential oils normally used in aromatherapy could

be used to kill deadly MRSA bacteria, scientists have said... In tests carried

out at the University of Manchester, three essential oils killed MRSA and e.coli

bacteria within two minutes of contact... The researchers tested 40 essential

oils against ten of the most deadly bacteria and fungi. Two of the oils killed

MRSA and e.coli almost instantly, while a third was found to act over a longer

period of time...

Don't know if these are the abstracts for this article

http://www.usc.edu/CSSF/History/2003/Projects/S13.pdf

They're California Science Fair experiments, probably high schoolers. 3 oils

listed in 2nd abstract. Another tests antibiotics on e coli, another MRSA is

found in hospital patients.

Thanks Wanita,

Looks like clove oil was the best performer in that particular experiment...

[2nd abstract]... next best was pine... surprised they haven't tried tea tree

oil and lavender... both reputedly are excellent antiseptic oils.

Looks like this girl was going on kitchen or grandma remedies in oil

concentrations rather than the newer. Tea tree and lavender were my thoughts

too.
