Understanding the Effect of Irrigation with Chromium Loaded Tannery Effluent on Ocimum basilicum L. vis-a-vis Metal Uptake
In this study, we investigated the effect of irrigation with heavy metal loaded tannery effluent on Ocimum basilicum L., an important aromatic crop for utilization of tannery wastewater and remediation of chromium rich tannery affected soils. The soil was irrigated with three different dilutions of tannery wastewater viz. 50%, 75% and 100% of tannery effluents (T, UD and U) including control. The maximum herbal biomass (105.17 g plant-1) was found in UD100. Although oil quality was not affected by application of tannery effluents, the oil yield was decreased significantly, as compared to control, in all treatments except i...

Phytoremediation of CdS/Te quantum dots by Ocimum basilicum in the presence of EDTA
ConclusionThe bioconcentration factors confirm thatO. basilicum phytoextracts cadmium from soils contaminated with CdS/Te QDs and CdIS. The bioconcentration factors of cadmium (under both species CdS/Te QDs and CdIS) increase in the presence of EDTA. The bioconcentration and translocation factors suggest that consuming “basil” from contaminated soils with CdS/Te QDs at low concentrations increases the exposition to this metal.

Management of chromium(VI)-contaminated soils through synergistic application of vermicompost, chromate reducing rhizobacteria and Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) reduced plant toxicity and improved yield attributes in Ocimum basilicum L
Arch Microbiol. 2022 Sep 10;204(10):614. doi: 10.1007/s00203-022-03230-z.ABSTRACTAn integrated approach involving vermicompost, chromate reducing bacteria and AMF was tested to manage the toxic impacts of Cr(VI) on Ocimum basilicum as a model plant. Pot experiments were conducted on O. basilicum plants in an artificially Cr(VI)-contaminated soil in two phases of experiment as bioinoculants experiment and vermicompost experiment. In the first phase of the bioinoculants experiment the series of gradient concentrations of Cr(VI) (0, 25, 50 and 100 mg kg-1 in soil) were evaluated with previously isolated four efficient Cr(VI)-...

Molecules, Vol. 27, Pages 5636: Influence of Nitrogen Fertilizer on the Antioxidative Potential of Basil Varieties (Ocimum basilicum L.)
zkudlarz
Total phenolic content (TPC) in extracts of basil depended on the cultivar and type of fertilization used in cultivation. TPC was determined spectrophotometrically with the Folin&ndash;Ciocalteu reagent. The antioxidant activity of extracts was analyzed by scavenging of DPPH and ABTS radicals, on the basis of metal chelating ability (MetChel) and ferric reducing antioxidant power (FRAP). The greatest TPC was determined in the purple cultivars&mdash;141.35 and 165.44 mg gallic acid/g d.m. for fertilized with ammonium nitrate (NH4NO3) and ammonium sulfate ((NH4)2SO4), respectively. Their extracts...

Molecules, Vol. 27, Pages 5599: Effects of Supplemental Light Spectra on the Composition, Production and Antimicrobial Activity of Ocimum basilicum L. Essential Oil
This study was performed to investigate the effects of different supplemental light spectra and doses (duration and illuminance) on the essential oil of basil (Ocimum basilicum L.) cultivated in the net-house in Vietnam during four months. Ten samples of basil aerial parts were hydrodistilled to obtain essential oils which had the average yields from 0.88 to 1.30% (v/w, dry). The oils analyzed using GC-FID and GC-MS showed that the main component was methyl chavicol (87.4&ndash;90.6%) with the highest values found in the oils of basil under lighting conditions of 6 h/day and 150&ndash;200 &micro;mol...

Molecules, Vol. 27, Pages 4671: The Impact of Soil pH on Heavy Metals Uptake and Photosynthesis Efficiency in Melissa officinalis, Taraxacum officinalis, Ocimum basilicum
olf
Herbs used in medicine should be grown under controlled and standardized conditions. Agricultural practices often induce changes to soil pH, which may affect migration of heavy metals in the environment, their accumulation in plant tissues and the concentration of medicinal ingredients. The aim of this work was to assess the influence of various soil pH on the biological parameters and uptake of manganese, copper and zinc by basil, dandelion and lemon balm. The soil analysis covered pH, organic matter content, bioavailable and total forms of investigated metals in soil. In plants cultivated in soil at pH covering t...
