The values of the physical parameters of the oil were weight-per-millilitre: 0.8762±0.0041 g, refractive index: 1.468±±0.96%, pH: 4.75±0.24, kinematic viscosity: 5.46±0.02 cSt and surface tension: 29.20±<!--> 0.04 dyn/cm at 28 °C. Lippia oil was soluble in 1 volume of ethanol (80%) at 28 °C, with the solution becoming opalescence on addition of 4 or more volumes of the ethanol. The oil is highly volatile at temperatures above 37.7 °C. While fungi were more susceptible to the lippia oil than bacteria, the oil was found to be more effective against Gram-positive bacteria than Gram-negative bacteria, with clinical isolates showing more resistance than type strains. The potential application of the physical properties and antimicrobial activities of lippia oil in its formulation as a drug product is discussed.</div>","PeriodicalId":100691,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Aromatherapy","volume":"14 4","pages":"Pages 162-168"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2004-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1016/j.ijat.2004.09.011","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"88401636","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This is notable in the case of immune function, an area of common and clinically significant dysfunction. Starting with the commonly accepted views in the field of aromatherapy may provide further information on how investigations into the possible effects of essential oils on the immune system in humans may be directed. The aim of this study was to ascertain from the aromatherapy profession in Australia which essential oils are commonly recognised as having immune modulating properties, and how they may be utilised. Aromatherapy educators, as experts in their field, were chosen to respond in the form of a structured telephone survey. Almost half of the eleven respondents named tea tree as a prominent immune stimulating oil, while seven rated German chamomile as anti-inflammatory. Aside from that, there seemed to be limited consensus, and views of the aromatherapy educators did not always reflect the findings of the few published scientific studies. This lack of agreement and the paucity of studies outline the need for more research in this area.</div>","PeriodicalId":100691,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Aromatherapy","volume":"14 4","pages":"Pages 150-161"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2004-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1016/j.ijat.2004.09.004","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"83304491","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
