The fighting to bacterial infections has been a topic of interest over time (Nazzaro et al., 2013). With the discovery of antibiotics it seemed that the problem to infectious bacterial diseases was solved. However, the resistance of bacteria to antibiotics has been a current topic of public health (Ventola, 2015). Currently, it is known that a variety of bacteria are resistant to antibiotics (Sengupta et al., 2013). In that context, studies are being carried out in different parts of the world in the search for substances of plant origin which be used to fight infections caused by bacteria (Nazzaro et al., 2013). Since ancient times, essential oils have been used in traditional medicine. The essential oils are substances produced by aromatic plants as secondary metabolites; they are obtained from plant materials as flowers, leaves, fruits, branches, seeds, bark, by different methods (Bakkali et al., 2008; Burt, 2004; Citarasu, 2010; Cowan, 1999). One of the advantages of using essential oils as an alternative therapeutic is that it has a wide range of antimicrobial activity. They are composed of a mixture of compounds as terpenoids, alcohols, aldehydes and other (Diao et al., 2013; FloresEncarnación et al., 2016c). It has been reported the bacterial antibiofilm activity from plant products or extracts rich in bioactive compounds (Chmit et al., 2014). The bacterial biofilms are communities surrounded by an exopolymer matrix adhered to surfaces (Costerton et al., 1999; Flores-Encarnación et al., 2014a). About 70% of human bacterial infections involve biofilms. The bacterial biofilms are cause of infections related with medical devices, for example: vascular catheters, prosthetic joints and others (Bjarnsholt, 2013; Donlan, 2011; Flores-Encarnación et al., 2014a; Flores-Encarnación et al., 2014b). The present study the effect of T. vulgaris on the formation of biofilm from uropathogenic E. coli in venoclysis tubes was studied.
