Effect
Route used in the experiment
Source




Antioxidant activity
DPPH radical- scavenging activity – lemongrass stalk’ essential oil inhibit almost the same rate with the standard essential oil bought from Sigma – Aldrich Chemistry which is used as the control. The leaves essential oil showed slightly lower inhibition with the highest anti-oxidant


activity

[2]




Antimicrobial activity
Disk diffusion assay – effectively inhibit and kill both Gram-positive and


Gram-negative bacteria.

[3] [4]




Antifungal activity
In vitro tests – effective against C. coccodes, B. cinerea, C. herbarum, R.


stolonifera and A. niger

[5]




Insecticidal activity
Various tests – potential of lemongrass EO as an insecticide approach


to management of A. ipsilon. Lemongrass oil caused                   significant effects on the mortality, developmental duration,                and expression level of CAT and lipid peroxidase after      96     h          post


treatment

[6]
