Antibacterial Activity of Selected Essential Oils against Foodborne Pathogens and Their Application in Fresh Turkey Sausages.

ABSTRACT: Essential oils (EOs) isolated from different plant materials, namely Origanum majorana L., Satureja hortensis L., and Satureja montana L. (OMEO, SHEO, and SMEO, respectively), were used in fresh turkey sausage processing. The chemical composition and in vitro antimicrobial potential of selected EOs and their mixture were determined. The minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) and minimum bactericidal concentration (MBC) against foodborne pathogens (Escherichia coli, Salmonella Enteritidis, and Listeria monocytogenes) ranged in the interval of 0.44-7.1 µL/mL. Fresh turkey sausages were produced with EOs addition and marked as follows: TOMEO-0.150 µL/g OMEO; TSHEO-0.150 µL/g SHEO; TSMEO-0.150 µL/g SMEO; TEOM-0.050 µL/g OMEO, 0.050 µL/g SHEO and 0.050
