Origin of the Melaleuca alternifolia plant
Known as tea tree or tea tree, it is a plant of the Myrtaceae family. Native to eastern Australia, it is also found on the north coast and adjacent areas of New South Wales. It grows near streams and marshes. The tea tree is the main source for the production of tea tree oil, a local fungicide and antibacterial, known as Tea Tree Oil. This essence is produced by distillation of the leaves of the Melaleuca alternifolia tree. In 1980, it was tested in Australia, as a germicide, against virulent organisms such as Staphylococcus aureus and Candida albicans. At 7, 21 and 35 days, the results reported no growth detected for any organism. In 1983, it was tested by Foodstuff Associated Laboratories in Australia, as a bacteriostat. Using swabs, the bacteria counted on unwashed hands was over 3,000 per 50 cm; on hands after washing in distilled water they were more than 2,000 by 50 cm; after washing with tea tree oil they were less than 3 by 50 cm.
