Abstract:
Objective To study the bacteriostatic effect of the volatile oil from Artemisia argyi. Methods Minimal inhibitory concentration (MIC) was measured with double-fold didution method. Protective effect of the volatile oil from Artemisia argyi were determined by experimental treatment of infected mice in vivo. Results The MIC90 of 3 kind of pathogenic bacteria were 0.78~25 ?L/mL and protective rate for infected mice were 40%~50%. Conclusion The volatile oil from Artemisia argyi has better inhibiting effect on Staply lococcus aureus, Escherichiacoli and Pseudomona than Erythromycin. It has better protective effect for infected mice.
