Pre- and post-milking teat antisepsis is one of the most effective methods for reducing incidence mastitis. Plant extracts have proven in microorganisms, providing a natural alternative antisepsis, along with additional benefits health. This study aimed to evaluate antimicrobial antiseptic effects two newly formulated products, used as pre-dipping post-dipping agents, respectively, based on plant from papain (Carica papaya), aloe vera (Aloe barbadensis), andiroba (Carapa guianensis), copaiba (Copaifera officinalis), tea tree (Melaleuca alternifolia), barbatimão (Stryphnodendron barbatiman). Minimum inhibitory concentration tests were performed vitro, microbiological analyses different bacterial groups vivo compliance assessments activity formulations, well molecular identification Staphylococcus aureus. The results demonstrated that products vitro against main pathogens cause mastitis, including aureus, Streptococcus agalactiae, Escherichia coli. In assays, similar performance was observed between tested control indicating plant-extract-based applied effectively reduced microbial load teats. equivalent those hydrogen-peroxide- iodine-based being able reduce total by more than 80%.
