Bassyounia,*, Zeinat Kamelb, Maha Mohssen Abdelfattahc, Eman Mostafab a Medical Microbiology and Immunology Department, Faculty of Medicine, Fayoum University, Egypt b Botany Department, Faculty of Science, Cairo University, Egypt c Microbiology Department, Research Institute of Ophthalmology, Cairo, Egypt ARTICLE INFO Article history: Received 31 August 2015 Received in revised form 5 December 2015 Accepted 4 January 2016 Keywords: Cinnamon oil Antimicrobial Conjunctival microbiota Contact lens Disinfectant ABSTRACT Objective: To investigate the antibacterial activity of cinnamon oil alone and in combination with a multipurpose contact lens disinfectant solution (MPS) as well as tobramycin against multi drmg resistant conjunctival bacteria both in planktonic and sessile forms. Methods: Minimum inhibitory concentrations (MIC) of tobramycin and cinnamon oil against 19 bacterial strains were investigated against planktonic and sessile cells by micro-dilution methods. Synergistic effects were determined by well diffusion and micro-dilution tissue culture plate methods for planktonic and sessile cells respectively. Time kill assay was performed to study the bactericidal effect of cinnamon oil in concentrations ranging from 5% to 0.312% combined with an MPS with respect to time. Results: MICs of cinnamon oil against planktonic bacteria ranged from 0.04% to 1.25% versus 0.156% to 5% for sessile cells. Combination of cinnamon oil with tobramycin had a synergistic effect against most tested organisms. The MIC values of cinnamon oil in combination with tobramycin was signi?cantly lower than cinnamon oil alone against bio?lm production (P = 0.004). Time kill assay revealed that combination of cinnamon oil and disinfectant successfully eradicated the tes
