In this study, effectiveness of the optimal gliding arc (OGA) plasma on Pacific white shrimp (PWS) immersed in 3% Laurus nobilis leaf essential oil (EO) was evaluated in three types of packaging, including atmosphere, vacuum, and modified atmosphere packaging (MAP). Laurus nobilis leaf EO contains high quantities of 1,8-cineole and α-terpinyl acetate with no significant effects on the bacterial load compared to OGA plasma. OGA plasma was used to compensate for the low antimicrobial effects of L. nobilis leaf EO. Considering parameters pH, PV, TVBN, and melanosis, the shrimps were acceptable for consumption at duration of 10 days. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
