“…Natural plant extraction of D-limonene can be performed using organic solvent extraction, new bio-based solvent extraction, and natural deep eutectic solvent extraction [36][37][38]. These methods are safer than chemical pyrolysis, but the yield is affected by differences in the extraction methods, solvent dosages, and even the plant raw materials, which can be subject to seasonal, climatic, and geographical factors [36,[39][40][41][42][43][44]. Therefore, the production of D-limonene via efficient bioconversion is an attractive strategy [29].…”

The discovery of antibiotics and pesticides has greatly contributed to the social and economic development of human society but, due to the long-term irrational application, it has led to drug-resistant microorganisms, environmental damage, and other hazards, so the selection of alternative natural, safe, and non-hazardous bioactive substances is an effective solution for this problem. D-limonene is a bioactive compound widely present in various plant essential oils, exhibiting excellent broad-spectrum bioactivity and promising prospects for development and clinical application. This review provides a detailed overview of the biological activities of D-limonene, emphasizing its antimicrobial, anthelmintic, insecticidal, and medicinal potential. While nanoencapsulation technology shows promise in improving the physicochemical properties of D-limonene and enhancing its practical applications, it is also crucial to comprehensively evaluate the potential side effects of D-limonene before use.
