“…Tu et al evaluated the inhibitory activity of distinct EOs encapsulated within alginate–chitosan microcapsules against five species of Ralstonia solanacearum (GIM1.71, GIM1.74, GIM1.76, GMI1000, and RS-5), a soilborne pathogenic bacterium responsible for vascular wilt disease in more than 200 different crop species . Ten EOs (from camphor, bay, artemisia, lavender, peppermint, cinnamon, lemon, lemon amine, anise-star, and tea tree) were encapsulated within alginate–chitosan microcapsules, with average particle sizes of 870.4 μm by a complex coacervation method.…”
