The application of essential oils (EOs) and their components as food preservatives is promising but requires a deeper understanding of their mechanisms of action. This study aims to evaluate the effects of thyme EO, carvacrol, citral and 2‐(E)‐hexenal, on whole‐genome gene expression (the transcriptome), as well as the fatty acid (FA) composition of the cell membranes of Escherichia coli K12.
