Antimicrobial activity of alginate/clay nanocomposite films enriched with essential oils against three common foodborne pathogens (2014, background): “For this reason, active molecules of EOs have to take a long way around the impermeable clay layers in nanocomposite films (Tunç & Duman, 2011).”
Strength and Barrier Enhancements of Cellophane and Cellulose Derivative Films: A Review (2013, unknown): “Cinnamaldehyde, which is obtained from cinnamon bark, eugenol (Sanla-Ead et al. 2011), which is extracted from essential oils such as clove oil, and carvacol (Tunc and Duman 2011) have also been used as leaching antimicrobial agents in the MC matrix.”
Mathematical model to describe the release of an antimicrobial agent from an active package constituted by carvacrol in a hydrophilic EVOH coating on a PP film (2012, background): “Moreover, the rate of release depends on the carrier material and its interactions with the active substance, as well as the film preparation method and environmental conditions (Tunç and Duman, 2010).”
