This study aimed to obtain the optimum formulation for stabilizers in ice cream that could contest with blends presented nowadays. Thus, different mixtures of three stabilizers, i.e. basil seed gum, carboxymethyl cellulose, and guar gum, at two concentrations (0.15 % & 0.35 %) were studied using mixture design methodology. The influence of these mixtures on some properties of ice cream and the ...

Here we report the genome sequences of both Salmonella Senftenberg 070885, a clinical isolate from the 2007 outbreak linked to basil, and its mutant linalool-adapted S Senftenberg (LASS). These draft genomes of S Senftenberg may enable the identification of bacterial genes responsible for resistance to basil oil.

One cannot sensibly introduce Basil Hiley’s work as a mathematical physicist without his collaboration with David Bohm, lasting from 1962, when Basil went to Birkbeck College, to Bohm’s death in 1992. The beginning of their careers shows an astonishing similarity in the study of collective phenomena—Bohm in plasmas, Basil in molecules. However, their topics changed drastically over time, and th...

Pyroglyphid house dust mites are the most common cause of allergic symptoms in humans. An assessment was made of the toxicity of basil, Ocimum basilicum L, essential oil, 11 basil oil constituents, seven structurally related compounds, and another 22 previously known basil oil constituents to adult American house dust mites, Dermatophagoides farinae Hughes. The efficacy of four experimental spr...

Ocimum basilicum L. belongs to the family Lamiaceae is an herb that is extensively cultivated in some countries. Arial parts, especially leaves of sweet basil are widely used to enhance the flavour of foods such as salads, pasta, tomato products, vegetables, pizza, meat, soups, marine foods, confectioneries and other products (Ghasemi Pirbalouti, 2014). Traditionally basil has Journal of Herbal...

BACKGROUND Glucocorticoid-induced osteoporosis (GIO) is one of the serious side effects which have become the most common secondary osteoporosis. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effect of aqueous extract of parsley, basil and chicory on glucocorticoid-induced osteoporosis in rats. METHODS Fifty Female rats were divided into five groups and treated for 8 weeks as follow: group 1 s...

Basil (Ocimum L.), a medicinal and aromatic plant genus, is widely used in food and pharmaceutical industry for ages. Our previous studies reported high potential of essential oils in the unexplored and un-exploited landraces of Omani basil. In the present study, nine Omani landraces of common basil (Ocimum basilicum L.) were analyzed for the assessment of genetic diversity with RAPD markers. O...

The concentrations of caffeic acid derivatives within Lamiaceae and Echinacea (herb, spice, tea, and dietary supplement forms) readily available in the US marketplace (n = 72) were determined. After the first identification of chicoric acid in Ocimum basilicum (basil), the extent to which chicoric acid could be found within the family Lamiaceae was investigated. The dominant phenolic acid in al...

High performance computing resources utilize batch systems to manage the user workload. Cray systems are uniquely different from typical clusters due to Cray’s Application Level Placement Scheduler (ALPS). ALPS manages binary transfer, job launch and monitoring, and error handling. Batch systems require special support to integrate with ALPS using an XML protocol called BASIL. Previous versions...
