Subject(s): Online resources: In: Menoufia journal of food and dairy sciences 2020.v.5(June)Summary: In this study, the chemical components of garlic, cumin and parsley volatile oils as well as the antioxidant and antimicrobial activities of these volatile oils and their mixtures were determined. Results indicated that garlic, parsley and cumin volatile oils contained eleven, thirteen and fourteen components which represented 96.47, 97.79 and 95.41%, respectively. Diallyl disulfide, diallyl trisulfide and allyl methyl trisulfide were the most abundant chemical compounds in garlic volatile oil, while myristicin was the major component of parsley volatile oil followed by ?-pinene and ?-terpinene. However, cumin aldehyde, ?-terpinene, ?-pinene and cuminic alcohol were the most predominant chemical compounds in cumin volatile oil. The highest antioxidant and antimicrobial activities were recorded for garlic and cumin volatile oils mixture (GC) followed by garlic and parsley volatile oils mixture (GP), while the lowest antioxidant and antimicrobial activities were found for parsley volatile oil. Finally, GC and GP volatile oils mixtures could be used in food industry as alternatives to synthetic antioxidants and antimicrobial substances.
