Eucalyptus oil consumption is well known to cause adverse effects on central nervous system like seizures, ataxia and unconsciousness. No antidote is available and treatment is largely supportive. We report a case of rhabdomyolysis with pigment cast nephropathy and acute kidney injury in a young female following eucalyptus oil consumption and its successful management.

Photodynamic inactivation, as a safe and effective antimicrobial technology that does not damage the organoleptic properties of the food itself, decreases the use of preservatives and is gradually gaining attention in the food industry. This study selected octyl gallate (OG) as an antimicrobial photosensitizer with eucalyptus oil as the oil phase and prepared it as an octyl gallate nanoemulsion (OG-NE) to ensure the delivery of the photosensitizer. Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus inactivation with the OG-NE combined with photodynamic technology, as well as the effect on the quality of food products, was investigated.

We aimed to determine the efficacy of different post-milking teat dips in the prevention of intramammary infection and teat condition scores in common crossbred cows (Holstein Frisian × Tharparkar) found in Indian sub-tropical conditions. Eighty healthy crossbred cows were selected and randomly divided into four groups: untreated control, 1% w/v iodine, 5% v/v lactic acid and finally essential oil mix (eucalyptus, lavender, peppermint, and tea tree oils). Samples were collected quarter-wise ( = 308).
