    Abstract:
    The objective of this study was to determine the chemical composition and antibacterial activity of Trachyspermum ammi essential oil (TAEO). Moreover, the present study comparatively investigated TAEO in the forms of emulsion and Nano-emulsion in alginate-based edible coatings against inoculated Listeria monocytogenes in turkey fillets during 12 days in cold storage (at a temperature of 4 ± 1 °C). Alginate solutions with two levels of TAEO (in emulsion and Nano-emulsion forms) were prepared in this study. The bacterial count was performed on days 0, 1, 2, 4, 8, and 12. Based on the obtained results of the current study, a comparison of different treatments with the blank samples (without any coating) showed that the highest considerable result was observed in the samples with Nano-emulsion coating (P < 0.05). Nano-emulsion loaded alginate coating prevented the growth of listeria in turkey fillets even after 12 days of cold storage. According to the findings of this study, the application of alginate edible coatings containing TAEO, especially in Nano-form, can be very effective in controlling the growth of L. monocytogenes, as a foodborne pathogen, during storage; therefore, it is a good choice to be applied in the meat industry.
