Impact of soil types on chemical composition of essential oil of purple basil

Proceedings of the 9th International Conference on Advanced Materials and Systems

“…The main components of Serbian sweet basil essential oil were linalool (35.1 %), eugenol (20.7 %) and 1.8-cineol (9.9 %) (Ilić et al, 2022). Both essential oils had the main compound linalool that gives antimicrobial characteristics (Hussain et al, 2008) and insect-repellent properties, anti-inflammatory activity, antihyperlipidemic, antidepressant, neuroprotective and anticancer properties (Alsaraf et al, 2020), antiviral, antifungal (Tursun, 2022). Basil essential oils from European countries contain methyl chavicol and linalool.…”

“…Natural products obtained from medicinal and aromatic plants have been widely consumed for centuries due to their therapeutic properties and aromaticity (Alsaraf et al, 2020). The need for medicinal and aromatic plants is in a growing demand for the active component principles that can be used in perfumes, pharmaceuticals, medicine, cosmetics or spices (Tursun, 2022). Basil (Ocimum basilicum L.) is considered one of the common aromatic plants with pharmacological properties such as antioxidant, chemo-preventive, anti-inflammatory, antimicrobial, immunomodulatory activity (Shalaby et al, 2020;Tursun, 2022, El-Nekeety et al, 2021, sedative and digestive due to the presence of specific compounds in the essential oil.…”

Ocimum basilicum and Ocimum americanum: A Systematic Literature Review on Chemical Compositions and Antimicrobial Properties

“…As a result, scientists and cultivators maximize the production of essential oils from purple basil by using the right type of soil. 26 An update on the use of natural ingredients in diabetic mellitus treatment: a comprehensive analysis demonstrated on numerous herbs indicated antidiabetic effects via controlling glucose abruption, insulin sensitivity to cells, insulin secretion, etc Combining the proteins from grains and basil seeds increases the biological value of the proteins by supplementing the limited amino acids in a reciprocal manner as it was done on Ocimum basilicum Linn. basil seeds protein isolate: physicochemical and functional analysis.…”
