Abstract
Food waste is one of the main topics of various scientific studies of the last decade. In this regard, this work analyzed an essential oil (EO) extracted from the flavedo of Citrus aurantium ‘Crispifolia’ fruit. The analysis, performed by GC-MS, showed a chemically variegated chromatogram characterized by the presence of limonene (33.35%), but also by oxygenated monoterpenes such as β-linalool (7.69%), α-terpineol (7.06%), and geranyl acetate (10.12%). EO from the external part of the C. aurantium peel had several properties, including excellent antimicrobial and good antibiofilm activities. It also showed antioxidant activity in vitro and decreased the amount of cellular ROS, thus stimulating the catalytic activity of crucial enzymes involved in mitigating oxidative stress.
