Essential Oils and Their Major Components: An Updated Review on Antimicrobial Activities, Mechanism of Action and Their Potential Application in the Food Industry

Manasweeta Angane et al.

Summary: Essential oils (EOs) can be considered as a natural food-grade preservative alternative, as they are Generally Recognized as Safe (GRAS) and have shown potential to inhibit the proliferation of food-borne pathogens. However, their antibacterial activity differs between Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria, and their application at a commercial scale is limited due to flavor and odor concerns. Further research is needed to develop strategies for industrial-scale application.
