Applications of Essential Oils in the Food Industry delivers detailed information on the application of essential oils derived from underutilized crops and herbs for the development, preservation, and safety of food products. The book covers post-harvest fruits and vegetables and their adjuvant and plasticizers when applied as an edible coating, as well as their mechanism of action as preservatives for foods, such as fish, meats, and yogurts. The book highlights the use of essential oils as anti-microbials, bio-preservatives, and antioxidants, and also examines their effectiveness against several food borne pathogens and in enhancing the aroma of food products.
