dc.description.abstract <p>The swine industry is investigating phytonutrients like oregano essential oil (OEO) because of its potent antimicrobial and antioxidant activity. These activities are attributed to OEO’s most abundant polyphenols, carvacrol and thymol. Carvacrol and thymol have been shown to permeabilize and depolarize the bacterial cytoplasmic membrane, resulting in cell death. The objective of this study was to quantify the antimicrobial and antioxidant activity of OEO.</p>
