Dose/Conc.(drug) : The essential oils at starting stock concentrations of 128 mg/ml in acetone were combined with ciprofloxacin or amphotericin at a starting stock concentration of 0.01 mg/ml in nine different ratios i.e. 9 : 1; 8 : 2; 7 : 3; 6 : 4; 5 : 5; 4 : 6; 3 : 7; 2 : 8 and 1 : 9.
Remark : When M. alternifolia oil is combined with ciprofloxacin and tested against S. aureus, antagonism was noted for all ratios. However only five antagonistic ratios were noted for S. aureus (ratios 9:1, 8:2, 6:4 and 5:5) and three antagonistic ratios (9:1, 8:2 and 1:9) for K. pneumoniae.
