Lipids and essential oils have strong antimicrobial properties — they kill or inhibit the growth of microbes such as bacteria, fungi, or viruses. They are being studied for use in the prevention and treatment of infections, as potential disinfectants, and for their preservative and antimicrobial properties when formulated as pharmaceuticals, in food products, and in cosmetics.

Lipids and Essential Oils as Antimicrobial Agents is a comprehensive review of the scientific knowledge in this field. International experts provide summaries on:

  • the chemical and biological properties of lipids and essential oils
  • use of lipids and essential oils in pharmaceuticals, cosmetics and health foods
  • antimicrobial effects of lipids
  • in vivo and in vitro
  • antimicrobial lipids in milk
  • antimicrobial lipids of the skin
  • antibacterial lipids as sanitizers and disinfectants
  • antibacterial, antifungal, and antiviral activities of essential oils
  • antimicrobial lipids in milk
  • antimicrobial lipids of the skin
  • antibacterial lipids as sanitizers and disinfectants
  • antibacterial, antifungal, and antiviral activities of essential oils
