Abstract
The present study investigates the efficacy of the nanoencapsulated mace essential oil (Ne-MEO) against the toxigenic strain of A. flavus (CP-05), aflatoxin B1 production, free radical generation and speculated in-vitro mechanism of action. Gas chromatography–mass spectrometry (GC-MS) results revealed myristicin (39.43%) as the major compound of Mace essential oil (MEO) followed by methyleugenol (8.15%) and safrole (6.26%). The nanoencapsulation...
