Abstract
Results of viable count time-kill method revealed that coriander oil had the highest antimicrobial activity with more than 99.99% killing of the exposed cells of the standard E. coli and Bordetella bronchiseptica standard strains. GC/MS was carried out to identify the chemical composition of the most active oils. The percentage of identified compounds by GC/MS was 92.5%, 99.43% and 98.66% for cumin, coriander and caraway oils, respectively. Monoterpenes were the most abundant components in the three oils.
