Antimicrobial activity

GSE exhibits antimicrobial properties against a range of microorganisms by disrupting their cell membranes. This action results in cell death, offering potential benefits against infections.

Grapefruit seed extract (GSE) demonstrates broad-spectrum antimicrobial activity against various microorganisms, including bacteria, viruses, fungi, and parasites, primarily observed in in vitro studies. This activity is attributed to the disruption of the cytoplasmic membrane of these microorganisms, ultimately leading to cell death.
