Fabrication, characterization, and bioactivity assessment of chitosan microemulsion containing lauric acid-vitamin E against foodborne pathogens.

Lauric acid (LA) is an antimicrobial medium-chain fatty acid, but its poor aqueous solubility limits its application in food matrices. To address this, ultrasound-assisted emulsion was developed using LA in vitamin E (VE) oil and chitosan-polyvinyl alcohol (CS-PVA) aqueous matrix. The emulsion exhibited uniformly dispe...

Lauric Acid Microemulsions Inhibit Staphylococcus aureus Through Cell Membrane Disruption and Potential Interference with Peptidoglycan Biosynthesis

Findings substantiate that LA emulsions disrupt S. aureus by operating potentially multi-targeted effects involving cell membrane disruption and peptidoglycan interference, offering a promising alternative approach warranting further investigation for foodborne pathogen control.
