Resumen
El objetivo del estudio fue probar el efecto antimicrobiano de los aceites esenciales de menta piperita, orégano y hierba luisa sobre Streptococcus mutans y Lactobacillus acidophilus. Se realizó un estudio experimental in vitro utilizando el método de arrastre por vapor de agua para obtener los aceites esenciales. Se midieron los halos de inhibición en placas Petri. Los resultados mostraron que la hierba luisa tuvo el mayor halo de inhibición (20,94 ± 2,11 mm), seguida del orégano (20,02 ± 5,09 mm) y la menta (12,19 ± 0,86 mm). No se encontraron diferencias estadísticamente significativas entre los tres grupos.
Abstract The study aimed to test the antimicrobial effect of essential oils from peppermint, oregano, and lemongrass on Streptococcus mutans and Lactobacillus acidophilus. An in vitro experimental study was conducted using steam distillation to obtain the essential oils. Inhibition zones were measured in Petri dishes. The results showed that lemongrass had the largest inhibition zone (20.94 ± 2.11 mm), followed by oregano (20.02 ± 5.09 mm) and peppermint (12.19 ± 0.86 mm). No statistically significant differences were found between the three groups.
