The aim of the present study was to determine the antifungal activity of microcapsules of essential oil of clove (Eugenia caryophyllata) and Mexican oregano (Lippia berlandieri) against Fusarium oxysporum. Different essential oil to β-cyclodextrin weight ratios were tested, (4:96, 8:92, 12:88 and 16:84 w/w) and encapsulation efficiency same as rate, were determined. GC-MS and GC-FID analysis were also performed to determine. The main oil constituents, which were eugenol and carvacrol in clove and Mexican oregano essential oils respectively and to quantify their ratio in microcapsules. The oxford cup method was used to determine the antifungal inhibitory activity of essentials oils and microcapsules of essential oils. The results showed that the 4:96 ratio (clove essential oil:β-cyclodextrin) gave the highest Eugenol content and the greatest microencapsulation efficiency; and.. View More»
