Data represents the mean (n = 3) ± standard deviation (SD). ∗ Indicate statistical significance between essential oil (EO) and nanoemulsión (NE) at same concentrations (p < 0.05). Different letters indicate statistical significance between concentrations of EO or NE (p < 0.05). Kruskal Wallis test, Infostat, 2011. Log CFU/mL in control group at 24 h = 10.04 ± 0.15.
