The antimicrobial activity of oil-in-water microemulsions is predicted by their position within the microemulsion stability zone [PDF]
, 2012 It has been shown previously that thermodynamically stable oil-in-water microemulsions have significant antimicrobial activity against planktonic cells and biofilm cells over short periods of exposure. It was the aim of this study to identify whether the
