Controlling food spoilage is critical not only to maintaining public health, but also to minimizing food loss, which in turn has broad impacts on the economy and the environment. Consumers today, concerned with both human and ecological health, are adamant that the elimination of risk for foodborne disease need not come at the cost of nutritional quality or ecological considerations. Moreover, a large factor towards the continued threat of foodborne illness is the fact that the responsible bacteria are increasingly resistant to conventional antibiotics. Considering that nature provides abundant antimicrobial compounds, it is salutary to assess the role that these compounds can play in fighting foodborne pathogens. As a result of these demands and considerations, natural antimicrobials are beginning to gain ground over their synthetic counterparts in industrial food safety processes. The success of these antimicrobial agents in individual settings has demonstrated that safe food doesnot have to mean highly processed or less sensorially satisfying food.
