Overview

Cinnamon bark oil is an essential oil extracted from the bark of cinnamon trees, primarily Cinnamomum verum (Ceylon cinnamon) or Cinnamomum cassia. It is widely recognized for its potent antimicrobial, antifungal, and antibiofilm properties, which are largely attributed to its high concentration of active constituents such as cinnamaldehyde and eugenol. In preclinical studies, cinnamon bark oil has demonstrated strong biocidal activity against various bacterial and yeast pathogens, including Staphylococcus aureus, Escherichia coli, Candida albicans, and Pseudomonas aeruginosa, making it a subject of interest for combating surgical site infections and multidrug-resistant biofilms.
