Oregano essential oils from Schauer (Lb) and Gray (Pl) were tested against the antioxidant butylated hydroxytoluene (Bht) to evaluate effects on the shelf life of ground beef (GB) over 7 days of storage at 4°C. The treatments were GB1 = GB control, GB2 = GB +100 mg/kg of Bht, GB3 = GB +100 mg/kg of Lb, and GB4 = GB +100 mg/kg of Pl. Lightness, redness, hardness, and springiness showed differences ( < .05) between treatments and days interaction, which serve as indicators of ground beef preserved quality and consumer acceptance. Mesophilic, psychrophilic, and lactic acid bacteria numbers and antioxidant activity showed differences ( < .05) for treatments and days. Sensory attributes showed no differences between treatments. The oregano oils may provide extended shelf life for packaged meat products treated with these natural additives and hence may be used for ground beef preservation.

To control mango postharvest deterioration, an edible coating based on pectin, glycerol, and oregano essential oil (OEO) was developed using a three-step process involving optimization, validation, and comparison with a commercial fungicide. An extreme vertices mixture design approach was initially used to optimize the pectin, glycerol, and OEO concentrations in the coating formulation. We evaluated the impact of the coating components on the respiration rate, quality parameters, and anthracnose disease of mangoes.

In vitro tests were conducted to characterize the host-mediated responses of chickens to Clove Essential Oil (CEO) and Oregano Essential Oil (OEO). Chicken macrophage cells (CMCs), chicken intestinal epithelial cells (IECs), quail muscle cells (QMCs), and chicken embryonic muscle cells (EMCs) were utilized in these assays. EMCs were collected from the 13-day-old embryo during egg incubation and all cell lines were seeded at 2 × 10/mL in a 24-well plate.

Background: Priming plants with natural products is extensively studied in the agricultural field to reduce the use of synthetic and copper-based pesticides. Previous studies have shown that Oregano essential oil vapour (OEOV) is an effective priming agent against downy mildew (DM) in grapevine (Vitis vinifera L. cv.

The early post-hatching phase remains to be one of the most vulnerable phases in broiler production. Some essential oils have been reported to improve gut health and growth in broiler chickens when applied to post-hatching diets. However, in-feed applications are unable to prevent the health challenges observed immediately after hatching.

The preservation of fish and seafood represents a significant challenge for the food industry due to these products' high susceptibility to microbial spoilage. Essential oils (EOs), classified as Generally Recognized as Safe (GRAS), have become a natural alternative to synthetic preservatives due to their antimicrobial and antioxidant properties. This review aims to analyze the specific potential of EOs in extending the shelf life of fish and seafood products, offering a natural and effective preservation solution.
