Effects of Eucalyptus essential oils on the motor coordination of mice, evaluated by the rotarod test. Mice were treated with vehicle (0.9% NaCl plus 1% of tween 80, 10 ml/kg, p.o., negative control group) or indomethacin (10 mg/kg p.o., positive control group) or the essential oils of E. benthamii, E. saligna, Urocam, or Grancam (50 mg/kg, p.o.) (n = 8).
