Essential oils: their antibacterial properties and potential applications in foods--a review.

TL;DR: In vitro studies have demonstrated antibacterial activity of essential oils (EOs) against Listeria monocytogenes, Salmonella typhimurium, Escherichia coli O157:H7, Shigella dysenteria, Bacillus cereus and Staphylococcus aureus at levels between 0.2 and 10 microl ml(-1).
Journal ArticleDOI

Food fermentations: role of microorganisms in food production and preservation.

TL;DR: The role of lactic acid bacteria in many such fermentations and the mechanisms of antibiosis with particular reference to bacteriocins are outlined and a brief description of some important fermented foods from various countries are given.
