Objective: To evaluate the cardiac effects of extracts derived from the aerial parts of Ocimum basilicum Linn. Material and Methods: The aerial parts of Ocimum basilicum Linn. were extracted with 95% ethanol and double distilled water. The extracts were screened for their effects on frog-heart in situ preparation. Enzyme studies such as Na/K ATPase, CaATPase and MgATPase were done on the heart ...

Deltamethrin is a pyrethroid insecticide used extensively in pest control. On the other hand it showed different toxicity in mammalian animals. Basil or sweet basil (Ocimum basilicum) is a plant which showed many pharmacological effects. The present work studied the potential protective effect of Ocimum basilicum extract on deltamethrin-induced nephrotoxicity in albino rats. Treating animals wi...

Essential oils (EOs) are natural compounds used in various fields such as traditional medicine, gastronomy, and agriculture, often against plant animal parasites. In the present study, toxic pathological effects of basil (Ocimum basilicum) essential oil on development zebrafish embryos was investigated. The manufacturer datasheet reported linalool eugenol major compounds. were evaluated through...

We evaluated the effects of aqueous and ethanolic leaf extracts of Ocimum basilicum (sweet basil) on sodium arsenite-induced hepatotoxicity in Wistar rats. We observed that treatment of the animals with the extracts before or just after sodium arsenite administration significantly (p < 0.05) reduced mean liver and serum γ-Glutamyl transferase (γGT), and serum alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activiti...

This study is conducted in a lath house Department of Biology coll. education for women, Tikrit University at the season 2021 on Ocimum basilicum L. and Aloe vera plants Two pot (30 cm Diameter 6.5 Kg weight )are used these factorial experiments with factors, first factor spraying Nano-Fe oxide 4 levels (F0 without ,F1 40 mg.L¯¹ ,F2 80 oxide,F3 120 mg. L¯¹ oxide). The second vitamin B3 (Niacin)...

objective(s): chitosan nanoparticles (cnps) were prepared based on the ionic gelation of chitoan with anionic compounds of ocimum basilicum leaf extract. materials and methods: after addition of ocimum basilicum leaf extract to chitosan solution, the physicochemical properties of the nanoparticles were determined by field emission scanning electron microscope (fesem), fourier transform infrared...

Ocimum basilicum L. (Lamiaceae) is an Egyptian plant used as a folkloric remedy in Egyptian traditional medicine. In the current study, the aerial part of this plant was used, and its essential oil was obtained by hydrodistillation. The essential oil of Ocimum basilicum (OB) was screened for its composition and some CNS activities (viz., sedative, hypnotic, anticonvulsant, local anesthetic). Wh...

The study was to examine the application of sonic bloom and refugia plants increase growth yield mustard greens (Brassica juncea L.). This used a Factorial Time Series Randomized Block Design (FTSRBD) with 3 replications. factor (R) are levels: R0 = control, R1 Ocimum basilicum, R2 Zinnia elegans different locations consisting (S0) no sound, (S1) heavy metal music frequency 21 -14000 Hz (S2) cl...

The antimicrobial activities of chloroform, acetone and two different concentrations of methanol extracts of Ocimum basilicum L. were studied. These extracts were tested in vitro against 10 bacteria and 4 yeasts strains by the disc diffusion method. The results indicated that the methanol extracts of O. basilucum exhibited the antimicrobial activity against tested microorganisms. While the chlo...

The aim of the present study was to investigate the volatile and sensorial profile of basil (Ocimum basilicum L.) by quantitative descriptive analysis (QDA) of the essential oil of three hybrids ("Cinnamon" × "Maria Bonita," "Sweet Dani" × "Cinnamon," and "Sweet Dani" × "Maria Bonita"). Twelve descriptive terms were developed by a selected panel that also generated the definition of each term a...
