Aromatherapy originated in Ancient Egypt. About a hundred years ago, a pharmacist from France used an innovative method which led to a breakthrough in aromatherapy techniques. In the past few years aromatherapy came into being to benefit to a lot of consumers and the usage of medical applications isn’t far away.

Essential oils and Aromatherapy

For centuries, individuals have experienced and have begun to recognise that essential oils have many advantages. Essential oils can help combat bacteria and other ailments, repel mosquitoes, prevent tooth decay, combat inflammation, oxidation and also improve the immune system, calm nerves, etc.

However, with all these kinds of essential oils around, which essential oils can help you? Which are the safest? These are questions that researchers are still not able to answer exactly.

Bio-technology and medical applications of aromatherapy

      • To establish the concepts and the operational models.
      • To bring aromatherapy into the domain of health treatments.
      • To use modern ways of making new medicinal products in establishing aromatherapy processes, in order to create aromatic medical science.
      • To ascertain the plant essences and their scientific applications, their methods of production and their significance for health therapy and wellness maintenance.

Essential oils on micro-organisms

Effects on micro-organisms from the atmosphere experimentation

May Green tea essential oil, Ginseng essential oil, Eucalyptus essential oil and lavender essential oil have an influence on the quantity of micro-organism (mould, yeast, fungus, bacteria) from the atmosphere? For some tests, they burnt these four kinds of essential oils in a sealed room and recorded readings at different time intervals. Readings were taken at the start of the experiment, during the experiment and after the experiment. The experiment was repeated several times based on a sample of 500 litres of air. The experiment results demonstrated that:

        • Eucalyptus has 52% and 48% efficacy respectively, as pertaining to the things above.
        • Lavender has 66% and 71% efficacy respectively, as pertaining to the things above.
        • Green Tea has 90% efficacy in killing bacteria; and 61% efficacy in killing fungus.
        • Ginseng has 90% efficacy in killing bacteria; and 62% efficacy in killing fungus.

The experiment demonstrated that aromatherapy products really could combat micro-organism from the atmosphere, thus purifying the air. Even though the effectiveness figures for fungus appear low, but that’s desirable because this would indicate that it wouldn’t be bad for the body.

After receiving such favorable and encouraging results, they’ve worked even harder to execute the 2nd experiment. This program made detailed analysis and records of the chemical compositions of the 5 essential oils, and evaluations were done to find out their chemical and biological security.

Carefully selecting Ginseng, Green Tea, Green Bamboo, Lotus and Eucalyptus as the 5 essential oils to the experimentation. The reason for such a choice was since the 1st four essential oils are plants in the East, of which insufficient researches were carried out in the West. The assortment of Eucalyptus was to work as a test reference for another 4.

Chemical and Biological Safety Experiment

The 2nd experiment went through the next measures:

Analysing the chemical composition of these 5 essential oils and according to their respective chemical compositions, analysis was done to ascertain the safety for use of essential oils. Also to ascertain the after effects of the vital oils, whether any by-products or toxins were produced from the combustion procedure.

Testing the before and after modifications of those vital oils. Using skin cells, fat cells and other cells to determine essential oils consequences. Finding out what impacts these vital oils have in fighting germs and killing micro-organism like mould, yeast and fungus.

The 2nd experiment results demonstrated that these essential oils have compositions that are moderate, low in toxins, don’t irritate skin and possess low light-sensitivity. The test also demonstrated that these vital oils do no undergo significant changes before and after the combustion procedure. What is more encouraging is that before the evaluation, these vital oils contained beneficial compositions, but after the evaluation, these valuable compositions diffused into the atmosphere and these are exactly what the body needs precisely. Additionally, the body does not easily absorb those compositions in our everyday activities.

These experiments have achieved positive results, and we expect that in future, there’ll be more of these experiments to create the benefits known to customers.
