“…Nevertheless, the volatile profile of ginger essential oil displayed some differences in the chemical composition, especially for limonene, which was not present and was replaced by β ‐phellandrene (Table ). Limonene's efficacy against Anisakis larvae is well known, and camphene has been reported as an antifungal and antitumor compound, and recently as an anisakicidal agent . Finally, 1,8‐cineole (66.0%), linalool (9.7%), β ‐pinene (9.7%), and α ‐pinene (6.9%) were the major compounds of the volatile fraction of olive oil flavored with laurel.…”

BACKGROUND Anisakidosis is caused by the ingestion of raw or undercooked fish or cephalopods containing viable Anisakis larvae. Several natural extracts, oils, essential oils, and their compounds have been tested against Anisakis. In this study the effectiveness of Tunisian olive oil with different spices or plants (cardamom, cinnamon, ginger, laurel, and rosemary) was tested against Anisakis larvae type 1. RESULTS For the in vitro test, larvae were submerged separately in the oils mentioned above and observed to check viability. Cinnamon oil was the most effective against parasites with lethal time (LT) scores being LT50 = 1.5 days and LT100 = 3 days, followed by rosemary. Laurel, cardamom, and ginger oils were less effective. For the ex vivo experiment, cinnamon, and rosemary oils were tested in anchovy fillets, previously artificially parasitized. Cinnamon was the most effective against parasites (dead after 4 days) as compared to rosemary (7 days). CONCLUSION The use of cinnamon and rosemary‐flavored olive oil in the industrial marinating process can be considered as an efficient alternative to the freezing process required by European Regulation EC No 853/2004 to devitalize Anisakis. © 2019 Society of Chemical Industry

“…In this regard, essential oils (EOs), aromatic oily liquids obtained from plant materials, are well known for their preservative properties. These substances and their components are used in food, pharmaceutical and cosmetic industries, for their antibacterial, antifungal, antiviral, nematocidal, anti-carcinogenic and antioxidant properties (Frassinetti et al , 2011; Giarratana et al , 2014, 2015a, 2015b; Rota et al , 2008; Silva-Angulo et al , 2015). Bergamot essential oil (BEO), extracted from the peel of Citrus bergamia Risso , is characterized by several of these properties (Navarra et al , 2016; Pernice et al , 2009; Sicari et al , 2015; Trombetta et al , 2010).…”

Essential oils are aromatic and volatile substances extracted from plants and characterized by antimicrobial activity. The aim of the present study was to evaluate the antibacterial activity (agar disc-diffusion method) of seven different bergamot essential oils (BEOs) on eight Listeria monocytogenes strains. Minimal inhibitory concentration (MIC) of most efficient BEOs was estimated. Extremely variable results for agar disc-diffusion method for L. monocytogenes strains were reported. One of the tested microorganisms resulted insensible to all the BEOs; 3 strains showed an inhibition from weak to null and the remaining 4 a variable susceptibility. Among the BEOs tested, one showed a strong activity against four pathogenic strains. Four BEOs revealed weak, moderate or null activity in all the 7 sensitive strains, while for two oils only a weak or no activity was reported. MIC values were 0.625 μL/mL for the most efficient BEO, 2.5 and 5 μL/mL for the other samples that showed moderate inhibition. Experiment results are significantly related to the strains tested (P<0.01), rather than the BEO employed (P>0.01). In conclusion, we can consider BEO as a natural technological hurdle for Listeria monocytogenes in combination with other preservation strategies. Finally, this study underlines the necessity to evaluate the antimicrobial activity of EOs on a significant strains number of the same bacteria.

-This review article focuses on current knowledge about in vitro and in vivo experimentation relating to use of essential oils (EOs) to combat fish parasites. In addition, we discuss the existing methodologies used in studies to determine the antiparasitic activity of EOs, along with their toxicity and major compounds. The methodological approaches used to describe the anthelmintic properties of EOs were demonstrated. The consistency of their activity and thus their potential use for fish ectoparasites (in vitro and in vivo) and endoparasites (in vitro) control was reviewed. There is a clear need to find EOs and active agents of EOs to treatment in vivo against endoparasites of fish. Thus, progress may be achieved through considering the beneficial aspects of EOs when their complementarity and potentiality are exploited. EOs are therefore viable alternative sources of therapeutic products against fish parasites. On the other hand, use of chemotherapeutics has been increasingly questioned, such that constant environmental and consumer concerns regarding them now exist. The synergistic functions of EOs, in comparison with the action of one or two major compounds of these oils, seems unquestionable. It is possible that their activity is modulated by several molecules of the major compounds. Lastly, EOs are bioactive products that are viable sources of therapy against fish parasites. Although more than 3000 EOs are known, less than 0.4% of them have been tested on fish parasites. Thus, it has become clear that more studies testing these therapeutic alternatives are required, in order to evaluate the antiparasitic potential of other EOs for controlling fish parasites and to maximize their benefits to hosts.
