Within the chemical composition of EOs, mainly
carvacrol and thymol show antibiofilm activity [13].
The anesthetic effect of EOLO-Ca on silver catfish was similar to
carvacrol, its main compound (BIANCHINI et al., 2017; BECKER et al., 2018).
On the other hand, essential oils share a similar chemical structure called isoprene, the chemical unit of the terpenoids, which derive in three phenols with phytobiotic properties: thymol,
carvacrol and eugenol (Bakkali et al., 2008).
Biological effects and modes of action of
carvacrol in animal and poultry production and health - a review.
Carvacrol was the most abundant compound in most of the plants studied, both in the dry and the rainy season.
According to our results,
carvacrol is an antioxidant less effective in reducing the PV.
The source of
carvacrol used in this study was a 98% pure grade stock purchased from Sigma-Aldrich (St.
The antidepressant effect of Marze essential oil observed in our study may be related to its major component,
carvacrol. The major component of Marze essential oil was
carvacrol (63.34%).
Susceptibility of methicillin-resistant staphylococci to oregano essential oil,
carvacrol and thymol.
monocytogenes strains that were categorized from low, medium and high heat tolerant groups were considered to study the survival of sublethal heat stress at 48[degrees]C for 1 h when exposed to
carvacrol, [H.sub.2][O.sub.2], NaOH and Lauric arginate (LAE) stresses.
Contrary to our results, previous researchers reported that adding
carvacrol, cinnamic aldehyde, thyme oil or thymol to lamb rations increased the body weight, though their effects were not statistically significant (Ghosh et al, 2010a, b, 2011; Chavez et al., 2008; Simitzis et al., 2008; Unal, 2011).
Quality of essential oil of thyme was assessed by determinate concentration of thymol and
carvacrol using gas chromatography with flame ionization detection (GC-FID).
