Abstract:
One of the most common infectious diseases of humans is urinary tract infections (UTIs), caused by Escherichia coli, which responsible for more than 80% of cases worldwide. About 6 to 20% of the human populations are experiencing asymptomatic bacteriuria (ABU), depending on age and gender and nearly 50% of women suffer from cystitis in their lifetime. Ginger is an important spice in Thailand. In 2001, Thailand grew more than 30,000 million tons of ginger. The present study indented to determine the antibacterial activity of ginger oil against clinical isolates of E. coli. The MIC of ginger oil was appeared to be 0.06% for E. coli. Ginger oil is found to have antibacterial activity against clinical isolates of E. coli. . However, the studies on toxic and irritant properties of essential oils are imperative, especially when considering any new products for human administration.
Keywords:
