Antibacterial activity of the screened essential oils (EOs) using the agar disc-diffusion method against (A) Cutibacterium acnes with EOs at a concentration of 50% v/v; (B) C. acnes with EOs at a concentration of 25% v/v; (C) Staphylococcus epidermidis with EOs at a concentration of 50% v/v; (D) S. epidermidis with EOs at a concentration of 25% v/v. Data are represented as means of inhibition zones (mm) ± standard deviation (SD). Controls used were clindamycin and erythromycin as positive controls, while dimethyl sulphoxide (DMSO) was used as a negative control.
