Then, the antibacterial effects of FGEO, the most effective EO, were evaluated on the trolley surface in a hospital for 1, 3, 5 and 10 min intervals.</span></span></span></span><br> <span style="font-size:12pt"><span style="line-height:normal"><span style="unicode-bidi:embed"><span new="" roman="" style="font-family:" times=""><b><span style="color:#2f5496">Results:</span></b> While CCEO, ASEO, and FGEO have the highest effects on the growth of <i>S. aureus</i>, CIEO and LNEO showed the best outcomes on <i>P. aeruginosa</i>. In addition, our finding showed that FGEO relatively decreases the growth of <i>S. aureus</i> and <i>P. aeruginosa</i> on the trolley surface (P<0.05).</span></span></span></span><br> <span style="font-size:12pt"><span style="line-height:normal"><span style="unicode-bidi:embed"><span new="" roman="" style="font-family:" times=""><b><span style="color:#2f5496">Conclusion:</span></b> The studied EOs could be novel encouraging agents to develop further green antimicrobial agents against different infections. In addition, FGEO, one of the best disinfectant agents in the present study, showed relatively strong antibacterial effects on the surface of the trolley.</span></span></span></span><br> &nbsp;</div> Essential oil, Antibacterial activity, Microdilution, Disinfectant 128 139 http://jabs.fums.ac.ir/browse.php?a_code=A-10-3375-1&slc_lang=en&sid=1 Zahra Bastani Nejad زهرا باستانی نژاد zbastaninejadnurse@gmail.com 100319475328460028802 0009-0007-7307-1503 No Department of Nursing, school of Nursing, Fasa University of Medical Sciences, Fasa, Iran گروه پرستاری، دانشکده پرستاری، دانشگاه علوم پزشکی فسا، فسا، ایران Laila Nikrouz لیلا نیک روز l.nikrouz@fums.ac.ir 100319475328460028803 100319475328460028803 No Department of Medical Surgical Nursing, Fasa University of Medical Sciences, Fasa, Iran گروه پرستاری جراحی، دانشگاه علوم پزشکی فسا، فسا، ایران Abbas Abdollahi عباس عبدالهی a.abdollahi360@yahoo.com 100319475328460028804 100319475328460028804 Yes Department of Microbiology, Fasa University of Medical Sciences, Fasa, Fars, Iran گروه میکروبیولوژی، دانشگاه علوم پزشکی فسا، فسا، فارس، ایران
