In the present study, we evaluated the antibacterial activity of  Citrus reticulata  ( C. reticulata ) essential oil-incorporated gelatin film solution against  Escherichia coli  ( E. coli ) and  Staphylococcus aureus  ( S. aureus ). The minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) of  C. reticulata  essential oil ( Cr EO) on  E. coli  and  S. aureus  were found to be 10.1 and 9.1 mg mL −1 , respectively, using spectrophotometric microdilution technique. The antimicrobial effect of  Cr EO alone and incorporated gelatin-based film solutions ( Cr EO-F) against these pathogens were determined by the disc diffusion method. While the inhibition zones of CrEO were 2.4 mm and 10.05 mm,  Cr EO-F was reported as 1.5 and 7.8 mm against  E. coli  and  S. aureus , respectively. These findings demonstrated that the  Cr EO can compete with coating agents with antimicrobial additives and it can find a place in the application areas. Besides, the chemical composition of the  Cr EO was determined by GC-MS.
