Enhanced Antibacterial Activity of Lippia grata Essential Oil by Nanoencapsulation
Nanoencapsulation of essential oil with polysaccharides improves the antimicrobial property by reducing the essential oil volatility and imprinting a synergic effect from the polyelectrolyte. This was investigated for Lippia grata essential oil encapsulated in cationic polyelectrolytes chitosan and trimethylchitosan na...
