“…M. canadensis L., Japanese mint) cornmint-MA, and M. piperita L. (Hudson) peppermint-MP are two well-known menthol mints in cultivation [ 35 ]. Menthol represents 70–90% of cornmint oil and about 20–60% peppermint oil [ 37 , 38 ]. The main supply of the world’s menthol production (19,170 tones) is obtained naturally (67.14%) exclusively from M. canadensis, and about 6300 tones (32.86%) are produced synthetically [ 39 ].…”

“…Linalool is an odorant non-cyclic monoterpene alcohol (C 10 H 18 O: 3,7-Dimethyl-1,6-octadien-3-ol) found in nature in two stereoisomers: Licareol (R)- or (−)-linalool, and Coriandrol (S)- or (+)-linalool [ 40 , 41 ]. Linalool represents up to 90.6% of the oil constituents of over 200 aromatic plant species of different families ( Supplementary Materials , Table S1 ) [ 38 ].…”

“…Myrcene is an alkene natural hydrocarbon acyclic monoterpene compound (C 10 H 16 : 7-Methyl-3-methylene-octa-1,6-diene) that exists in two isomers, the first of which is β-myrcene (the natural form), and the second form (α-myrcene) is not available naturally, but can be prepared industrially [ 42 ]. Myrcene is a colorless liquid found naturally in different sources ( Supplementary Materials , Table S2 ) [ 38 , 43 , 44 , 45 ].…”

“…Globulol is also found in varying concentrations in EOs of various plants that belong to different families such as Myrtaceae, including Eucalyptus spp., with a rate of 5.3% extracted from the leaves and white kunzea ( Kunzea ambigua (Sm.) Druce) by 11.2% from leaf oil; the family of Asteraceae, including Vassoura ( Baccharis dracunculifolia DC), with a rate of 2.5–14.5% from leaf oil; the family of Cyperaceae such as Piri-piri ( Cyperus articulatus L.) by 3.2–4.6% from rhizomes oil; and the family of Valerianaceae, e.g., Valerian ( Valeriana officinalis L.) at a rate of 2.1% from root oil [ 38 , 50 , 51 ].…”

The aquaculture sector is one of the main activities contributing to food security for humanity around the globe. However, aquatic animals are susceptible to several farming stressors involved in deteriorated growth performance, reduced productivity, and eventually high mortality rates. In some countries still, antibiotics and chemotherapies are comprehensively applied to control biotic stressors. Aside from the apparent benefits, the continuous usage of antibiotics develops bacterial resistance, deteriorates bacterial populations, and accumulates these compounds in the aquatic environment. Alternatively, environmentally friendly additives were used to avoid the direct and indirect impacts on the aquatic ecosystem and human health. In aquaculture, medicinal herbs and extracts are extensively used and approved for their growth-promoting, anti-inflammatory, and antioxidative properties. Herbal essential oils contain many bioactive components with powerful antibacterial, antioxidative, and immunostimulant potentials, suggesting their application for aquatic animals. Essential oils can be provided via diet and can benefit aquatic animals by improving their well-being and health status. The use of essential oils in aquafeed has been studied in a variety of aquatic animals to determine their beneficial roles and optimum doses. The outputs illustrated that herbal essential oils are exciting alternatives to antibiotics with prominent growth promotion, antioxidative, and immunostimulant roles. Herein, we reviewed the beneficial roles of essential oils in aquaculture. This review also aims to describe trends in herbal essential oils use, mainly in commercial fish species, and to analyze different factors that affect essential oils’ efficacy on the growth performance, antioxidative, and immune responses of finfish species.

AbstractBergamot essential oil (BEO) is well-known for its food preservation activity, as well as anticancer efficacy. However, the poor BEO water solubility and deriving low bioaccessibility have limited its wider applications. The incorporation in nanoemulsions of BEO and its refined fractions was investigated to enhance its dispersibility in water to promote its antimicrobial activity, tested against Escherichia coli, Lactobacillus delbrueckii, and Saccharomyces cerevisiae, and its cytotoxicity already at low concentrations. Different nanoemulsion formulations were tested based on food-grade ingredients, which were characterized in terms of hydrodynamic diameter and polydispersity index, and physical stability. The antimicrobial activity against all the tested micro-organisms was observed to be higher for BEO in its initial composition, than the light fraction, richer in d-limonene, ß-pinene, and γ-terpinene, or the heavy fraction, richer in linalyl acetate and linalool. Remarkably, the use of BEO nanoemulsions notably enhanced the antimicrobial activity for all the tested oils. BEO exhibited also a measurable cytotoxic activity against Caco-2 cells, which was also enhanced by the use of the different nanoemulsions tested, in comparison with free oil, which discourages the direct use of BEO nanoemulsions as a food preservative. Conversely, BEO nanoemulsions might find use in therapeutic applications as anticarcinogenic agents.
