The antimicrobial properties of marjoram (Origanum majorana L.) Volatile Oil
Abstract
Steam distilled volatile oil from marjoram (Origanum majorana L.) was evaluated for its antibacterial and antifungal activities. A range of 25 bacterial and five fungal species was used in this study, and included animal and plant pathogens, food poisoning bacteria and mycotoxigenic fungi. The oil exerted considerable inhibitory powers against several of the bacteria, with the food‐poisoning bacterium Staphylococcus aureus being least affected. The most susceptible organisms were Beneckea natriegens, Erwinia carotovora and Moraxella sp. Of the fungi tested, Aspergillus niger proved the most susceptible to marjoram oil.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
