Research

Antifungal

The main ingredient in carrot seed essential oil, carotol, inhibits the growth of multi-drug resistant fungi.

Abad MJ, Ansuategui M, Bermejo P. (2007) Active antifungal substances from natural sources. ARKIVOC. 2007;7:116-45.

Antimicrobial

The aim of the study was to evaluate antibacterial effects of the essential oil from the seed of cultivated carrot (Daucus carota L. ssp. sativus; DCSO) and wild carrot (Daucus carota L. ssp. carota; DCCO) obtained by hydrodistillation against two pathogenic bacteria and foodborne spoilage Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli…According to the obtained results, these two essential oils can be applied as a natural preservative in food and as a natural antibiotic for the treatment of several infectious diseases caused by these two bacteria.

Retrieved from https://www.researchgate.net/publication/310400675_Antimicrobial_properties_of_essential_oil_from_wild_and_cultivated_carrot_seed

Using the broth microdilution method, we showed that (1) two unique blends of Cinnamomum zeylanicum, Daucus carota, Eucalyptus globulus and Rosmarinus officinalis EOs (AB1 and AB2; cinnamon EOs from two different suppliers) were active against the fourteen Gram‐positive and ‐negative bacteria strains tested, including some antibiotic‐resistant strains…With this dual activity, against H1N1 and against S. aureus and S. pneumoniae notably, AB1 may be interesting to treat influenza and postinfluenza bacterial pneumonia infections. These blends could be very useful in clinical practice to combat common infections including those caused by microorganisms resistant to antimicrobial drugs.

Antitumor

These findings demonstrate that DCOE has remarkable antitumor activity against DMBA-induced skin cancer compared with non-treated animals paving the ground for further investigations.
