The article Antibacterial activity of lemon (Citrus lemon L.), mandarin (Citrus reticulata L.), grapefruit (Citrus paradisi L.), and orange (Citrus sinensis L.) essential oils is an explanation of the experiment conducted involving the testing of essential oils (EO's) from a variety of citrus sources as a means of inhibiting the growth of certain common bacteria. The author's stated purpose for this experiment was that since many consumers prefer natural based antimicrobial substances, they were testing naturally occurring EO's for their antibacterial properties. They did this by using six different strains of bacteria,...
Of EO from one of the four sources, on top of the agar. After incubating for 48 hours at a temperature appropriate for the growth of each bacteria, they measured the lack of growth of the bacteria, if any, on the agar around the paper filters. The tests were conducted three times for each bacteria and EO and the measurements were statistically analyzed using standard statistical methods.
After displaying their methods and results, the authors asserted their conclusions: grapefruit EO was most effective inhibiting the growth of three strains of bacteria, and lemon EO was most effective against the other three. Both mandarin and orange EO's were only minimally effective at inhibiting the growth of the bacteria used in the test.

The member nations of OPEC are relatively few, making it easier for them to form a producing conglomerate; the idea of a consumer conglomerate is untenable, as OPEC will always be able to find an extensive enough market for its commodity with other countries not in this conglomerate, and thus they can still control the price.

These supply increases have largely come from technological developments that have allowed for new forms of
