Inhibition of biofilm formation in P. aeruginosa by the leaf and fruit essential oils of Spondias mombin.

Concentration	% Biofilm inhibition
	S. mombin fruit	S. mombin leaf	Gentamicin
MIC	62.89 ± 0.2	59.27 ± 10.3	75.02 ± 19.5
MIC/2	57.10 ± 6.8	51.63 ± 13.4	72.04 ± 16.6
MIC/4	55.50 ± 6.3	49.81 ± 11.5	59.11 ± 9.5
MIC/8	51.59 ± 3.1	47.62 ± 10.1	57.22 ± 9.8
MIC/16	46.90 ± 2.1	42.78 ± 5.1	56.95 ± 10.5
MIC/32	42.50 ± 0.7	38.05 ± 0.5	50.76 ± 6.8
BIC50 (mg/mL)	42.49 ± 0.1	97.34 ± 0.6	2.45 ± 1.7

Data presented as mean ± standard deviation, n = 3; concentrations of essential oils or gentamicin used were based on their minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) against P. aeruginosa; ^∗gentamicin was used for comparison purposes.
