96 PROCEEDINGS OF INTERNATIONAL SCIENTIFIC CONFERENCE ON APPLIED BIOTECHNOLOGYIt also successfully controlled the growth of the remaining Gram (+) bacterium with the MIC value of 64 %u00b5g/mL. Regarding Gram (%u2013) bacteria, this oil failed to control the bacterium E. coli but moderately monitored the bacteria P. aeruginosa and S. enterica(Table 2). The obtained oil also exerted good activity against the fungus C. albicans with the MIC value of 64 %u00b5g/mL, as compared with that of cycloheximide (MIC = 32 %u00b5g/mL). Table 2.
