The purpose of this study was to determine the chemical composition of the essential oil of from Morocco using the GC-MS technique and assess the antibacterial effects against seven pathogenic bacteria strains isolated from the food origins of , , three serotypes of (O114H8K11, O127K88ac, O127H40K11) and Tests of sensitivity were carried out on a solid surface using the Disc Diffusion Method. Results showed that and were sensitive to essential oil. Minimum inhibitory concentrations (MIC) were determined using the method of agar dilution. The antibacterial results showed that four strains (three serotypes of , and ) were remarkedly sensitive to essential oil, giving MIC values of 88.7 µg/mL and 177.5 µg/mL. The molecular docking of the main oil products with the target protein 1VLY, showed that eucalyptol and linalyl acetate bind efficiently with the active site of the target protein. In particular, eucalyptol showed a higher activity than gentamicin used as positive control with a binding energy of -5.72 kcal/mol and -5.55 kcal/mol, respectively.

This study investigates the effects of varying exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) rates and temperatures on the combustion and emissions characteristics of a compression ignition engine fueled with hydrotreated vegetable oil (HVO). Understanding these effects is essential for optimizing renewable fuel applications in compression ignition engines, contributing to cleaner combustion, and supporting sustainable transportation initiatives. The experiments revealed that increasing the EGR rate to 20% not only reduces NOx emissions by approximately 25% but also increases smoke by around 15%, highlighting a trade-off between NOx and particulate matter control.

Essential oils application as natural preservatives is challenging owning to low solubility and stability to harsh conditions, while incorporation of essential oils into nanoemulsion systems can effectively improve these issues. Therefore, the nanoemulsion of () and cardamom essential oils were fabricated through self-emulsification technique and evaluated their size, ζ-potential, antioxidative and antibacterial activities. The effect of double nanomulsion on the textural and sensorial properties of Mortadella sausage was also examined under chilling temperature (4 °C).
