“…The results in this study showed moderate values comparing with those reported by Mahmud et al (2009), who found that DIZ of discs impregnated with 0.45ml of extracted essential oils of sour lime peels has high antibacterial activity on Bacillus subtilis (22 mm), S. typhimarium (17 mm). But the values of DIZ were 18 mm for Staph.…”

“…Also the extracted oil of LE peels has the lesser effect on Penicillium sp and A. niger CAIM 147 compared with LI peel oil (DIZ were 10 and 12 mm, respectively). Mahmud et al (2009) extracted the essential oil of sour lime peels by hydrodistillation and studied the effect of this oil against the growth of different fungal strains by disc diffusion method. They found that DIZ after 48 hr.…”

Citrus juice production generates 15 million tons of wastes a year in the world, including peels, seeds and fruit pulps. This study aimed to evaluate the antimicrobial activity of extracted essential oils from six Egyptian citrus fruit peels. This antimicrobial activity was determined by paper disc diffusion method against six fungal strains and nine bacterial strains. Maximum inhibition zones were resulted against Penicillium sp and Aspergillus niger CAIM 147 with oils of lime and lemon peels which were extracted by hydrodistllation. In addition, the lime oil was more effective on fungal strains than lemon oil. The results showed also that oils of mandarin, sour orange and sweet orange peels extracted by the same method did not show any antifungal activity on the all tested fungi. While grapefruit peel extract has moderate effect on some fungal and bacterial growth. Also these essential oils of lime and lemon peels had very strong antibacterial activity on Bacillus subtilis DBDR 100, Clostridium botulinum ATCC 3584, Escherichia coli CCM 5172, Klebsiella pneumonia ATCC 12296 and Salmonella senftenbergy ATCC 8400. The essential oils extracted by organic solvents from all citrus fruit peels used in the present work were moderate weak activity against tested fungi and bacteria. The obtained results agreed with the phenolic contents in the essential oils extracted from citrus fruit peels and the results showed that increasing of phenolic content in these oils increased the diameter of inhibition zones of the all tested fungi and bacteria. The results showed that the lime peel oil extracted by hydrodistillation (10µl) was more effective and completely inhibited the growth of A. niger and Penicillium sp compared with lemon peel oil. Different concentrations of oil lime extracted by hydrodistllation were more effective against bacterial strains activities compared to lemon oil. B. subtilis was more sensitive at low concentration (10µL) of lime oil followed by K. pneumonia and S. senftenbergy at 30µL under the same conditions. And E. coli and Cl. botulinum were more resistant with lime oil until 50 and 40µL of lime oil, respectively. On the other hand, 20µL of lemon peel extracted by hydrodistillation completely inhibited the growth of B. subtilis, while the minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) of oil lemon peel was 30µL for K. pneumonia and S. senftenbergy, 40µL for E. coli and 50µL for Cl. botulinum. Accordingly, the essential oils of lime and lemon peels extracted by hdrodistllation contained antimicrobial compounds which can be used as preservatives in the food industries.

“…The compounds found in C. limetta are compared with the compounds reported in other varieties (Table 4) (Shaw et al, 2000;Steuer et al, 2001;Yadav et al, 2004;Mahmud et al, 2009;Bousbia et al, 2009). The d-limonene, β-pinene, β-myrcene, α-pinene, β-bisabolol and α-terpineol levels are in the range reported by the majority of authors.…”

The essential oil of citrus fruit contains components pleasant sensory characteristics that are appreciated in food, pharmaceutical, and cosmetics industries. In the case of sweet lime (Citrus limetta Risso), is necessary to characterize the essential oil components, to identify potential uses of this fruit. The essential oil of sweet lime was obtained from lime flavedo in four different maturation stages. Steam distillation was employed and then compared with hexane extraction. The identification of the components in the essential oil was carried out by gas chromatography and mass spectrometry. A total of 46 components were found in the essence of lime, among which the highest concentration of compounds present were aldehydes such as limonene. Linalool, sabinene, and bergamol were more abundant than in other varieties. The best extraction method was steam distillation, and the concentrations in stage III from the main terpenic portion were d-limonene with 74.4%, bergamol with 8.23%, and β-pinene with 7.62%.

The main objective of the study was the identification of antibacterial activity of lemon (Citrus limon L.) peel essential oil and argan (Argania spinosa L.) oil against fish pathogenic bacteria. Antibacterial activity was determined against six different fish pathogens (Yersinia ruckeri, Aeromonas hydrophila, Listonella anguillarum, Edwarsiella tarda, Citrobacter freundii and Lactococcus garvieae). Essential oil derived from lemon peel and argan oil were applied against the bacteria using the disc diffusion and micro dilution method under in vitro conditions. The disc diffusion results indicated that essential oil of naturally C. limon peel and argan oil significantly inhibited the growth of Y. ruckeri, A. hydrophila, L. anguillarum and C. freundii. Our results suggested that the use of lemon peel essential oil and argan oil induced a stronger antibacterial effect.
