abstract = {Medicinal and aromatic plants (MAPs) are potential sources of natural bioactive phytochemical
compounds of an incredible worth for the food industry, such as polyphenols. Lamiaceae
medicinal and aromatic plants from Granada’s high plateau, concretely Origanum bastetanum, Thymus
zygis gracilis, Thymus longiflorus, Thymus membranaceus and Ziziphora hispanica, were evaluated under
different conventional solid–liquid extraction conditions to obtain extracts enriched in bioactive
compounds. Phenolic profile was detected by HPLC-QTOF-MS, identifying a high abundance of
bioactive constituents. Furthermore, antioxidant and antiviral activities of the mentioned plants were
studied as biological properties of interest for the improvement of food shelf-life. Thus, Origanum
bastetanum showed the highest antioxidant potential for all assays. Antiviral activity was also tested
against some important foodborne viruses, feline calicivirus (FCV), murine norovirus (MNV) and
hepatitis A virus (HAV), with the highest activity obtained for Ziziphora hispanica, Thymus longiflorus
and Origanum bastetanum. This research proposes the studied plants as rich sources of bioactive
compounds with potential use as preservatives in the food industry.},
