Therefore, the search for new, promising substances that demonstrate antagonism towards different microorganisms has been observed in recent years. Different plants, as well as differentiated methods of obtaining of biological compounds, are the research subject. Moreover, current trends focus on the sustainable recovery of antimicrobial substances from waste materials. The contributed articles present original research with a focus on: The biological activity of plant-derived extracts and oils: the research is concentrated on the discovery of new sufficient antimicrobial substances, characterized by broad biological properties including antibacterial, antifungal, antimycotoxigenic and cytotoxic activity. Novel extraction techniques to obtain plant-derived extracts such as supercritical fluid extraction (SFE), which has gained acceptance for the extraction of valuable substances due to its environmentally friendly character, or ultrasound-assisted extraction (UAE). The extraction techniques of the plant-derived bioactive compounds have a significant impact on the quality of the extracts and their chemical compositionAntimicrobial Substances in PlantsTechnology: general issuesbicsscBiotechnologybicssclactic acid bacteriaplant extractsmilk fermentationtotal phenolic contentantioxidant capacitiesseed oilsantibacterial propertiescytotoxicityantifungal propertiesomega-3 fatty acidsomega-6 fatty acidsantitumor activitiesPortulaca oleracea L.Luffa aegyptica Mill.Cucurbita maxima L.Linum usitatissimum L.aflatoxin B1Aspergillus flavuscarotenoidscurcuminmaize varietiesphotosensitizationpreservation techniqueActinidia deliciosaby-product valorizationextraction optimizationbioactive propertiesnatural ingredientsantifungal activitybiological plant protectioncereals qualityessential oilsergosterolfood chain safetyFusarium spp.mycotoxinsantioxidant activityantimicrobial propertiesbiofilmGlechoma hederaceasupercritical fluid extractionTechnology: general issuesBiotechnologyGwiazdowska Danielaedt1338955Juś KrzysztofedtMarchwińska KatarzynaedtGwiazdowska DanielaothJuś KrzysztofothMarchwińska KatarzynaothBOOK9910674038703321Antimicrobial Substances in Plants: Discovery of New Compounds, Properties, Food and Agriculture Applications, and Sustainable Recovery3059279UNINA
