Physico-mechanical properties of chitosan films with carvacrol and grape seed extract (2013, background): “Several plant essential oils are natural antimicrobial (AM) agents that have a great potential as preservative ingredients, having a wide acceptance by consumers (Burt, 2004).”
Antimicrobial nanocomposite films made of poly(lactic acid)–cellulose nanocrystals (PLA–CNC) in food applications—part B: effect of oregano essential oil release on the inactivation of Listeria monocytogenes in mixed vegetables (2014, background): “Carvacrol, thymol, p-cymene and c-terpinene are the principal constituents of oregano EO (Lamber et al. 2001; Burt 2004).”
Antioxidant and Antimicrobial Activities of Thyme and Clove Essential Oils and Application in Minced Beef (2015, background): “These generally recognized as safe nature substances inhibited lipid oxidation in foods, thereby serving as natural additives in foods and food products (Burt 2004; FDA 2013).”
Antifungal activity and mechanism of action of carvacrol and thymol against vineyard and wine spoilage yeasts (2014, background): “Because of hydrophobicity, essential oil components including carvacrol and thymol partition in the lipids of the cell membrane, rendering the membrane permeable and leading to leakage of cell contents, thereby exerting their antibacterial action (Burt, 2004).”
Plant extracts to manipulate rumen fermentation (2008, background): “Essential oils can also cause cytoplasmic coagulation and eventually lead to cell lysis (Burt, 2004).”
Edible films from pectin: Physical-mechanical and antimicrobial properties - A review (2014, background): “Their biological effects, including antibacterial and antifungal activity, as well as pharmaceutical and therapeutic potentials, have been well documented (Bakkali, Averbeck, Averbeck, & Idaomar, 2008; Burt, 2004; Edris, 2007).”
Evaluation of Origanum vulgare essential oil as antimicrobial agent in sausage (2007, background): “613 subject has been extensively discussed in the literature by numerous papers (see the review papers of Burt (4); Holley and Patel (15)).”
