Popis: Nowadays, essential oils are considered substitutes for synthetic additives in food products. Since lipid oxidation is the main chemical process affecting mayonnaise deterioration, in this research, the antioxidant activity of essential oil of thyme (Zataria multiflora Boiss) was determined for oxidative stability of treated mayonnaise (homogenized) during 6 months of storage. The antioxidant activities of the essential oil of thyme (0–150 μg/g) were investigated by the DPPH method. Then, the efficiency of this essential oil (144.4 μg/g) as a natural antioxidant in mayonnaise was studied by following analysis: peroxide, anisidine, Totox, and thiobarbituric acid. GC analysis of the essential oil resulted in the identification of forty compounds. The essential oil is characterized by a high number of monoterpenes such as thymol and carvacrol. Regarding antioxidation, the investigated essential oil strongly reduced the DPPH radical (IC50 = 144.4 μg/ml). This study confirms that the essential oil of thyme possessed antioxidant properties in vitro. The results showed that the treatments containing essential oil and TBHQ significantly reduced the oxidation (p
