Effect of a Diffused Essential Oil Blend on Bacterial Bioaerosols
Author: S. C. Chao, D. G. Young, and C. J. Oberg
Journal: Journal of Essential Oil Research 10, 517523 (Sept/Oct 1998)
Location: Weber State University, Ogden, UT
Abstract: A proprietary blend of oils containing cinnamon, rosemary, clove,
eucalyptus, and lemon was tested for its antibacterial activity against airborne
Micrococcus luteus, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, and Staphylococcus aureus. The
bacteria cultures were sprayed in an enclosed area, and Thieves was diffused for a
given amount of time. There was an 82% reduction in M. luteus bioaerosol, a 96%
reduction in the P. aeruginosa bioaerosol, and a 44% reduction in the S. aureus
bioaerosol following 10 minutes of exposure.
Conclusion: Diffusion of the oil blend, Thieves, can significantly reduce the number
of aerosol-borne bacteria.

Of scientific interest: Essential Oils and Disease
The cellular oxygen concentrating ability of essential oils may be in part responsible
for there marked ability to inhibit bacteria. There are numerous references to
antibacterial antifugal and antiviral properties of essential oils dating back to the
1930 and 40s with Dr. Gattefosse and Dr Valnet’s research in France .
The effectiveness of some essential oils as both antibacterial and antiviral agents
has been reported for a very long time. During the bubonic plague (caused by the
Yersinia pestis bacillus) that swept through Europe in the Middle Ages, killing more
than 30% of the population in affected areas, it was observed that people who
worked in the lavender distilleries and in other industries using essential oils rarely
contracted the disease. Housed in the Royal English Archives is the record of thieves
who robbed the dead of valuables during the Black Plague of the 17th century.
Although contact with diseased bodies spelled certain death, the thieves boldly went
from house to house without ever coming down with the plague. It turns out they
were members of a family of perfumers, Because of their intimate knowledge of
certain essential oils they rubbed on their bodies, they had no fear of this deadly
disease.

This same formulation found in the Royal English Archives is available today from an
oil blend called "Thieves".

Extensive studies published by the University of Georgia, Weber State University,
the Journal of the American Pharmaceutical Association, and numerous other
journals have documented the ability of essential oils to kill many strains of fungi,
viruses, and gram negative and positive bacteria. Some of these include
Staphylicoccus pneumoniae (responsible for lung and throat infections), Herpes
simplex, Salomonella, typhosas, and Pseudonomas aeroginosa and cancer.
**Dr. Diane Horne of Weber State University in Ogden , Utah , told the 98th general
assembly of the American Society of Microbiology about the serendipitous discovery
of the impact of the oils on cells such as Streptococcus pneumonia.
A coresearcher was spraying aromatic oils in the laboratory. "When I looked at the
S. pneumonia that I was preparing for another experiment, the cells were just
falling apart," Dr. Horne reported. Dr. Horne and coworker Sue Chao, of the Young
Living Essential Oil Company of Payton , Utah , tested the autolyzing properties of
74 different essential oils.

The best results occurred with oregano, thyme and rosewood and intermediate
inhibition of the pathogens was achieved with cinnamon oil and clove oil, Dr. Horne
said at a poster presentation at the meeting. Dr. Horne pointed out that the oils also
showed efficacy against E. coli and several species of fungi.
