Composition of essential oil of Ocimum basilicum L., minimum and variability in antioxidant activity of essential oil of leaves and flowering tops of Ocimum basilicum L. Genovese following seasons of culture under arid climate (southeast of Algeria)
Abstract
In this work we have studied the antioxidant activity of essential oils from leaves and flowering tops of Ocimum basilicum L., genovese (Lamiacea) from three different seasons, all were cultivated in southeast of Algeria (Ouargla) in a Saharan climate. According to the results obtained from the scavenger effect test of the DPPH radical, the essential oils tested have a significant antiradical potential especially for the essential oils of the flowers and autumn leaves with a IC50 of 19.696 ± 0.01 and 20.536 ± 0.03 μg/ml respectively. The study of the composition of the essential oil of Ocimumbasilicum L. minimum, by GC and GC-MS in FULLSCAN mode as well as in the SIM mode has allowed the identification of the chemotype linalool with a percentage of 43.5%, 86 compounds were also identified representing 98.7% of the oil composition.
