Four tannin samples extracted from chestnut wood (tannin oenologique, TO), grape (tannin VR grape, TVG), oak gall (tannin galalcool, TG), and oak tree (tannin VR supra elegance, TE) were evaluated for antioxidant and antibacterial activity. The highest total phenolic content (TPC) values were observed in the order of TVG > TG > TE > TO (p < 0.05). The antioxidant activities of all samples were determined in terms of DPPH radical scavenging activity, reducing power, metal-chelating activity, and linoleic acid peroxidation assay. The antioxidant activities of all samples vary and no correlation was observed with the respective TPC values of each sample. Antibacterial activities indicate that all samples showed more or less inhibitory effects against selected Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria. Based on antioxidant and antibacterial activity, TO and TVG were selected for the beef mince quality preservation study during refrigerated storage. Both TO and TVG at two different concentrations, 0.25 and 0.5%, could cease the chemical and microbial changes as compared to the control sample. Although total viable count (TVC) did not show a significant difference, the H2S-producing bacteria count was lower in all samples treated with TO and TVG compared to sodium metabisulfite (SMS) and the control sample (p < 0.05). Therefore, TO and TVG could be promising natural food preservatives during refrigerated storage.
