“…Plants in this family are rich in polyphenolic compounds and a large number of them are well known for their antioxidant, antibacterial and antifungal properties (Kamkar et al, 2010;Saei-Dehkordi, et al, 2010;Sajed et al, 2013). However, the antimicrobial properties of ZEO and MEO when incorporated into edible films are relatively unknown.…”

Corn starch-based films are inherently brittle and lack the necessary mechanical integrity for conventional packaging. However, the incorporation of additives can potentially improve the mechanical properties and processability of starch films. In this work two essential oils, Zataria multiflora Boiss (ZEO) or Mentha pulegium (MEO) at three levels (1%, 2% and 3% (v/v)), were incorporated into starch films using a solution casting method to improve the mechanical and water vapour permeability (WVP) properties and to impart antimicrobial activity.

de Mentha pulegium et de Tanacetum annuum a été examinée vis-à-vis de trois moisissures responsables de la pourriture des pommes. L'analyse par CG-SM des huiles essentielles obtenues par hydrodistillation a montré que celle de M. pulegium renferme principalement de la pulégone (90,2%), alors que celle de T. annuum est dominée par le sabinène (39,5%). L'évaluation de l'effet des extraits végétaux sur la croissance fongique, par la technique de micro-atmosphère, a révélé que 100 à 1200 µl/l d'huile de T. annuum n'ont pas affecté la croissance des champignons ; cependant, l'eugénol et l'huile de M. pulegium ont complètement inhibé la croissance des trois moisissures.Mots clés : activité antifongique -eugénol -huile essentielle -Mentha pulegium -Tanacetum annuum.Abstract.-The antifungal activity of eugenol and essential oils vapors of Mentha pulegium and Tanacetum annuum was examined against three apple rot fungi. Analysis by GC-MS of the essential oils obtained by hydrodistillation shows that M. pulegium oil contains mainly pulegone (90.2%), while that of T. annuum is dominated by sabinene (39.5%). The evaluation of the effect of plant extracts on fungal growth, by the technique of micro-atmosphere, reveals that 100 to 1200 µl/l essential oil of T. annuum does not affect the fungal growth; however, eugenol and oil of M. pulegium oil have completely stopped the growth of three fungi.

“…They are rich in polyphenols and well known for their antioxidant properties. The genus Mentha (Lamiaceae) comprises 25−30 species found in temperate regions of Eurasia, Australia, and South Africa [1][2][3]. Mentha has been known for its carminative, stimulative, stomachic, diaphoretic, antimicrobial, antiseptic, anesthetic, antiemetic, anti-inflammatory, and strong antioxidant properties.…”

Essential oils from eleven Mentha species were obtained by Deryng hydrodistillation and analysed by GC-MS: 44 compounds were identified. The most abundant were menthone, isomenthone, menthol, carvone, piperitone oxide, D-limonene and eucalyptol. Chemometric similarity measures and principal component analysis were calculated, allowing comparisons based on secondary metabolite content. The fingerprints may be helpful in chemotaxonomy.
