Thesis Abstract

Abstract
This thesis presents a comprehensive investigation into the antimicrobial properties of natural plant extracts for potential application in food preservation. The study aims to explore the effectiveness of various plant extracts in inhibiting the growth of pathogenic microorganisms commonly found in food products. A literature review was conducted to establish the background and significance of the research topic, highlighting the growing interest in natural antimicrobial agents as alternatives to synthetic preservatives. The research methodology involved the extraction of bioactive compounds from selected plant sources, followed by antimicrobial screening using well-established techniques. The findings revealed promising antimicrobial activity of certain plant extracts against a range of foodborne pathogens, suggesting their potential as natural preservatives. The discussion of results provides insights into the mechanisms of action of these plant compounds and their implications for food safety and shelf-life extension. The study concludes with a summary of key findings, implications for future research, and recommendations for the practical application of natural plant extracts in food preservation strategies. Overall, this thesis contributes valuable knowledge to the field of applied science and underscores the potential of natural plant extracts as effective antimicrobial agents for enhancing food quality and safety.
