The current study aimed obtaining antimicrobial sachets that could be used as preservatives for foods. Basil (BEO) and Pimenta dioica (PDEO) essential oils (EOs) were analyzed by GC-FID and GC-MS and tested against the foodborne bacteria S. aureus, E. coli, L. monocytogenes, P. aeruginosa, S. Enteritidis, and the food-spoilage mold B. nivea. Then, inclusion complexes (ICs) with EOs and ß-cyclodextrin (ß-CD) were prepared as a strategy to reduce volatility and increase the release time of EOs. Eight ICs were prepared by kneading and freeze-drying methods, in two molar ratios, and have been characterized by complementary methods: FT-IR, thermal analysis (DSC and TG/DTG), powder XRD, and solid state 13C NMR. In vitro antimicrobial activities of ICs, both dispersed in agar and loaded in sachets, have also been investigated. Complexation was confirmed for all samples. PDEO-based ICs prepared by kneading method, at both molar ratios, displayed better in vitro antimicrobial activity. The obtained results strongly suggest a potential application of these ICs as natural antimicrobials.
