“A team of researchers at the University of Beira Interior, Portugal, found coriander to be toxic to a broad range of harmful bacteria. In a study published in the Journal of Medical Microbiology, the authors concluded that using coriander oil in foods and in clinical agents could prevent food-borne illnesses and even treat antibiotic-resistant infections.
The researchers tested coriander oil against 12 bacterial strains, including Escherichia coli, Salmonella enterica, Bacillus cereus and(MRSA). Of the tested strains, all showed reduced growth, and most were killed, by solutions containing 1.6% coriander oil or less.”
