For the prevention of mastitis a demonstrated insect repulsing effect of the so-called tea-tree-oil is exploited, this oil being won from the Australian tea-tree or Melaleucha Alternifolia. The oil can be used with a quite low concentration in a teat dip (teat spray) or an ointment.NIELS...
A non-phytotoxic fungicidal composition comprising an alkali or ammonium salt of a high MW organic fatty acid forming an emulsion, and tea tree essential oil, terpinen-4-ol oil solubilized in the emulsion, and a method of producing the aforesaid non-phytotoxic biocide, including the steps of ad...
. There is variability in the chemical profile of tea tree oil and six chemotypes (varieties) of M. alternifolia are recognised, each with a distinct chemical composition. Traditionally, Aboriginal peoples of Australia crushed the leaves to inhale the vapour to treat respiratory infections and used...
