In the current study, response surface methodology (RSM) was used to assess the effects of extraction time and temperature on the content of bioactive compounds and antioxidant activity of purple basil leaf (Ocimum basilicum L.) extracts. The stability of anthocyanins in relation to temperature, light and copigmentation was also studied. The highest anthocyanin content was 67.40 mg/100 g extracted at 30 °C and 60 min. The degradation of anthocyanins with varying temperatures and in the presence of light followed a first-order kinetics and the activation energy was 44.95 kJ/mol. All the extracts exposed to light showed similar half-lives. The extracts protected from light, in the presence of copigments, showed an increase in half-life from 152.67 h for the control to 856.49 and 923.17 h for extract in the presence of gallic acid and phytic acid, respectively. These results clearly indicate that purple basil is a potential source of stable bioactive compounds.

ResumoA cimetidina (Cm) é um importante histamínico receptor de hidrogênio e pode coordenar íons metálicos no plasma sanguíneo. A estabilidade da cimetidina e dos seus complexos com os íons Mn(II), Co(II) e Ni(II) foi avaliada por estudos de termogravimetria (TG) e análise térmica diferencial (DTA
AbstractCimetidine is an important hydrogen histamine receptor and can coordinate metal ions in blood plasma. The stability of cimetidine and its complexes with Mn(II), Co(II) and Ni(II) was evaluated by studies of thermogravimetry (TG) and differential thermal analysis (DTA). Cimetidine was thermally stable up to near 190 °C and above this temperature the thermal decomposition occurred in two stages. Complexes of [Mn(HCm) 2 ]Cl 2 , [Co(Cm) 2 ]Cl 2 and [Ni(Cm) 2 ]Cl 2 showed a similar behavior. The pyrolytic decomposition occurred in two stages at temperatures above 250 o C. A residue for each complex was detected at the end of the decomposition process. This probably corresponds to the respective metal oxide.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
