摘要: Abstract The inhibitory effects of the essential oil obtained from yarrow ( Achillea millefolium ) were tested against planktonic cells and biofilms Listeria monocytogenes innocua isolates food processing environments. plant was found to have strong bactericidal activity which be equivalent that tea tree Melaleuca alternifolia ). Inhibition biofilm formation growth after incubation with different concentrations assessed by crystal violet 3 -[4, 5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl]-2, 5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide reduction assay. Yarrow significantly inhibited initial cell attachment on polystyrene, stainless steel high density polyethylene surfaces but less towards 6 h preformed formed polystyrene surface. Metabolic decreased considerably oil. oil, or its constituents, may useful additives for development new disinfectant sanitizer formulations application in industry.
