Antibacterial and antibiofilm activities of kaffir lime essential oils and their active constituents against focusing on sortase A.

biofilm has become a global medical concern due to rising antibiotic resistance. This study aimed to evaluate the potential activities of kaffir lime essential oils and their active compounds as alternative anti- biofilm agents. The compositions of the essential oils were identified by gas chromatography/mass spectrometry (GC/MS), and their antibacterial activity was determined through broth-microdilution and time-kill assays.
