The efficacy of combined application of edible coatings and thyme oil in inducing resistance components in avocado (Persea americana Mill.) against anthracnose during post-harvest storage (2014, unknown): “The presence of phenolic rings and hydroxyl groups on the phenol rings of thymol and cymol, (active volatile compounds) in thyme oil enhanced its antimicrobial activity (Bagamboula et al., 2004).”

Combined application of antagonist Bacillus amyloliquefaciens and essential oils for the control of peach postharvest diseases (2010, background): “…hydroxyl groups on the phenol rings of thymol (44.7% of the TO fraction) and carvacrol (2.4% of the TO fraction), the active volatile components of TO, could have enhanced its antimicrobial activity of antagonist Bacillus amyloliquefaciens and..., Crop Protection (2009), (Bagamboula et al., 2004).”
Development of Edible Films and Coatings with Antimicrobial Activity (2011, background): “Contrarily, it was reported that the addition of carbohydrates seemed to have no effect on the inhibitory action of the EOs in broth cultures (Bagamboula et al. 2004).”
Essential Oils in Food Preservation: Mode of Action, Synergies, and Interactions with Food Matrix Components (2012, background): “For example, p-cymene, one of the major constituents in thyme, had no antimicrobial activity against several Gram-negative pathogens even at 85700 μg/mL concentration (Bagamboula et al., 2004).”

Antimicrobial Activity of Some Essential Oils—Present Status and Future Perspectives (2017, unknown): “When used alone, p-cymene is not an efficient antimicrobial compound [62,63], but the activity of compounds like carvacrol is potentiated by p-cymene [64] and polymyxin B nona peptide [65].”
