Abstract:
... The objective of this study was to evaluate the mechanism of the synergistic antimicrobial effect of cineole (CN) and carvacrol (CR) on E. coli and its application on fresh-cut cucumbers. Herein, the CN/CR synergy could effectively inhibit E. coli by destroying its bacterial cell structure and causing the leakage of intracellular organic matters. For the first time, CN/CR synergy interaction on E. ...

Abstract:
... Thymol and carvacrol are terpenes which have great potential to be used as preservatives in food and antimicrobial agents in medicinal herbs. As they present low water solubility and display acid-basic properties, inclusion in cyclodextrins and pH variations may enhance their properties. Here, the inclusion of thymol and carvacrol in β-cyclodextrin, at neutral and basic pH at 25 °C, is reported. T ...
