abstract = "As a worldwide cultivar, Rosmarinus officinalis L. (rosemary) in form of essential oils, extracts,
and spice possesses many pharmacological properties due to different biological activities.
Interestingly, the chemical profile of rosemary depends on regionality, seasonality, environmental
conditions, agronomic conditions, and its own varieties. Therefore, this research aimed to
investigate the impact of geographical origin on the antimicrobial activity of the essential oils.
Screening of the in vitro antimicrobial activity was performed by the discdiffusion and
microdilution methods. It can be noticed that Russian oil (RF) showed far better antimicrobial
potential in comparison to Serbian oil (SRB). In the case of RF, the maximum inhibition zone of
40.00 mm was registered for all tested microorganisms, except for Pseudomonas aeruginosa
(21.33 mm) and Aspergillus brasiliensis (33.00 mm) where the activity might be estimated as
moderate to high. These results can indicate the possibility of using RF as a natural ingredient in
combating the microbial and antimycotic resistance toward antibiotics. A high antimicrobial
activity (above 30.00 mm) was also observed for SRB against Escherichia coli, Staphylococcus
aureus, and Saccharomyces cerevisiae.",
