Antibacterial effects of thyme oil loaded solid lipid and chitosan nano-carriers against Salmonella Typhimurium and Escherichia coli as food preservatives
Nanoencapsulation of thyme oil significantly potentiated its antimicrobial effects. TO-CH exhibited a significantly higher antibacterial effect compared to TO-SLN (6-fold) and pure thyme oil (more than 10-fold).
