Abstract

U današnje vrijeme sve su veći zahtjevi potrošača prema prehrambenoj i farmaceutskoj industriji za prirodnijim proizvodima sa što manje dodanih kemijskih agenasa. Eterična ulja i hidrolati su prirodni antimikrobni lijekovi izolirani iz biljnih izvora koji imaju potencijal u borbi protiv mnogih patogenih mikroorganizama koji se prenose hranom i uzrokuju kvarenja. Ovaj rad donosi pregled antimikrobnih svojstava eteričnih ulja i hidrolata, njihovu kemijsku strukturu i antimikrobnu učinkovitost. Također, navode se najčešće korištene metode određivanja antimikrobne aktivnosti kao i mehanizam djelovanja ulja i hidrolata.

Abstract (english)

Nowadays, there are increasing consumer demands towards the food and pharmaceutical industry for more natural products with as few added chemical agents as possible. Essential oils and hydrolates are natural antimicrobial drugs isolated from plant sources that have the potential to fight many food-borne pathogens and cause spoilage. This paper provides an overview of the antimicrobial properties of essential oils and hydrolates, their chemical structure and antimicrobial efficacy. Also, the most commonly used methods for determining antimicrobial activity as well as the mechanism of action of oils and hydrolates are listed.
