Investigating the potential scabicidal activities of three essential oils: gaining mechanistic insights through in vitro contact bioassay and molecular docking
These findings revealed the potential for anti-scabies of essential oils from cassia bark and myrrh oleo-gum-resin, which could effectively control scabies. The Docking analysis showed strong to moderate binding affinities of major components of cassia and myrrh essential oils towards GST and SMIPP-S-D1 enzymes.
