Modulatory effect of E. oleracea oil (EOO) and its inclusion complexes with β-cyclodextrin (EOO-βCD) or hydroxypropyl-β-cyclodextrin (EOO-HPβCD) in combination with: (A) Ampicillin (AMP) and (B) Piperacillin + Tazobactam (PIP + TAZ) against E. coli; (C) Ciprofloxacin (CIP) and (D) PIP + TAZ against P. aeruginosa; (E) Vancomycin (VAN) and (F) CIP against S. aureus, compared with the effect of these antibiotics alone. Inclusion complexes were prepared by either kneading (K) or slurry (S). Differences compared with the control were considered statistically significant when p < 0.05.
