Summary Note520 _aThe aim of this study was to determine the antibacterial activity of a developed lemongrass mouthrinse containing 25% and 50% lemongrass oil concentration against two oral pathogens, mainly Aggregatibacter anctinomycetemcomitans and Staphylococcus aureus. The Kirby Bauer Disk Diffusion method was used for the cultures, including 0.20 Chlorhexidine digluconate as a positive control and a formulated mouthwash without lemongrass oil content as a negative control. One disk per plate was used and each contains the treatment (mouthwash) to be tested. The plates were incubated for 24-48 hours at room temperature (30 celcius). The zone of inhibitions were measured and photographed. The results obtained were analyzed using the United States Pharmacopeia: Biological Reactivity Test, in vitro of 2007. Results have shown that the 50% lemongrass oil concentration mouthash is more severely active in inhibiting Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans, having a mean diameter of 35 mm as compared to the 23.6 mm diameter of Chlorhexidine and 20.3 mm of the 25% lemongrass oil treatment. Findings concluded that the 50% lemongrass oil concentration mouthrinse is significantly different and is therefore more effective than the 25% lemongrass oil mouthrinse, the negative control mouthwash and Chlorhexidine digluconate when used on A. actinomycetemcomitans. Staphylococcus aureus on the other hand is more sensitive to Chlorhexidine with a mean diameter of 33.3 mm as compared to the 26 mm mean of 50% lemongrass oil mouthrinse, which both are severely reactive. The 50% lemongrass oil mouthwash however, having a bigger mean diameter than the 25% treatment and the mouthwash without lemongrass oil results to non-significance. Nevertheless, both the formulated 25% and the 50% concentration lemongrass oil mouthwash shows significant inhibitory effect on the two oral pathogens.
