Coriander or Cilantro (Coriandrum sativum, L.) is an annual herb that belongs to the Apiaceae family.

It is grown for its leaves and aromatic seeds in Europe, North Africa and Asia as medicinal and culinary grass.

The chemical composition of Coriander's essential oil sees Linalool 57.57%, Geramil acetate 15.09% and Camphor 3.02% as the main ingredient. There are also small amounts of Geraniol 0.24%, Limonene 0.62%, Menthol 0.54%, Eugenol 0.76% (1).

This study examines the effects of essential oil chemically characterized by Coriandrum sativum leaves on the viability and adhesion of candida albicans and non-albicans strains, both in planktonic and biofilm crops and assessed its antifungal mode of action. This essential oil has demonstrated strong antifungal and anti-stick activity against Candida spp., as well as anti-proteolitic activity against C. albicans and works by increasing the ion permeability of the cell membrane rather than disturbing the biosynthesis of cell walls (2).

Studies have attributed to coriander and its essential oil sedative-hypnotic, anti-anxiety and antioxidant activities (3).

Cosmetics

Skin conditioning agent. It is the mainstay of topical skin treatment by restoring, increasing or improving skin tolerance to external factors, including melanocyte tolerance. The most important function of the conditioning agent is to prevent skin dehydration, but the subject is rather complex and involves emollients and humectants.
