    Abstract The meat and meat product industry has evolved according to the needs of the market. Consumers are increasingly seeking quality in food. Thus, the concern regarding the excessive use of additives such as preservatives and antioxidants has driven research towards natural, healthy and safe substitutes. Essential oils and plant extracts have been shown to be a good option for resolving this problem. They are completely natural with biological activity, which mainly includes prevention of oxidation and the proliferation of microorganisms, thus arousing the interest of the industry and consumers. This review will present studies published in the last five years regarding the potential of essential oils and plant extracts to act as preservatives and antioxidants in meat and meat products. The forms of application, innovations in the area, alternatives to the incorporation of essential oils and extracts in meat products, effects caused in food, and limitations of applications will be detailed and discussed.

    Abstract Apergillus carbonarius and Aspergillus niger are the principal fungi that attack table grapes, and they are responsible for producing and contaminating these fruits with ochratoxin A. Packaging containing essential oils from Ocimum gratissimum L. and Ocimum basilicum L. encapsulated in poly(lactic acid) (PLA) nanofibers were produced, the antifungal and antiocratoxigenic activities against A. carbonarius and A. niger were evaluated in vitro and in vivo, and the effect of these packages on the quality of table grapes was determined. The nanofibers were produced by the Solution Blow Spinning technique and characterized by Scanning Electron Microscopy and Thermogravimetric Analysis. Fungal contamination and ochratoxin A production were significantly controlled by PLA nanofibers containing the essential oils and the physicochemical parameters of the grapes were preserved, preserving the quality and the shelf life of the fruit. Therefore, the active packaging developed herein has potential and may be suitable for application in fruits.
