We investigated the inhibitory activity of commercially marketed essential oils mint, rosemary, orange, sage, cinnamon, bay, clove, and cumin against Arcobacter butzleri skirrowii effects oil rosemary A. in a cooked minced beef system. Using disc diffusion method to determine activities these plant strains Arcobacter, we found that those clove had strong organisms, whereas cumin, sage failed show most tested.
