Abstract:
Aim: The present study is aimed to evaluate in-vitro anti-inflammatory and anti-bacterial activity of phenolic ethereal oils like Tulsi (Ocimum tenuiflorum) and Clove (Syzygium aromaticum). Materials and methods: A total of 500 g of fresh leaves and dried flower buds of Tulsi and Clove were subjected to hydro-distillation method for 6 h using Clevenger’s apparatus. The isolated ethereal oils were used for testing the in-vitro anti-inflammatory activity by using albumin denaturation assay, proteinase inhibitory activity at a concentration of 20, 40, 60, 80 and 100 µl/ml and anti-bacterial activity against two gram positive microorganisms (Bacillus subtilis and Staphylococcus aureus) and two gram negative microorganisms (Salmonella typhi and Escherichia coli) at concentrations 50 µl/ml, 100 µl/ml and 200 µl/ml by adopting cup plate method. Results: The isolated ethereal oils exhibited significant in-vitro anti-inflammatory effect and also inhibited the growth of both Gram positive and Gram negative microorganisms at 50 µl/ml, 100 µl/ml and 200 µl/ml concentrations. Conclusion: The findings of this study showed that the effectiveness of Phenolic ethereal oils isolated from Clove and Tulsi. Clove (Syzygium aromaticum) showed enhanced anti-inflammatory and anti-bacterial activity compared to Tulsi (Ocimum tenuiflorum). The present study provides evidence that Ocimum tenuiflorum and Syzygium aromaticum; Phenolic ethereal oils contain medicinally important bioactive components justifying its traditional use. Keywords: Phenolic ethereal oils, anti-inflammatory activity, anti-bacterial activity, Ociumm tenuiflorum, Syzygium aromaticum.

Abstract:
Tulsi (Holy basil, Ocimum tenuiflorum L., Lamiaceae), native to Asia, has become globalised as the cultural, cosmetic, and medicinal uses of the herb have been popularised. DNA barcoding, a molecular technique used to identify species based on short regions of DNA, can discriminate between different species and identify contaminants and adulterants. This study aimed to explore the values associated with Tulsi in the United Kingdom (UK) and authenticate samples using DNA barcoding. A mixed methods approach was used, incorporating social research (i.e., structured interviews) and DNA barcoding of Ocimum samples using the ITS and trnH-psbA barcode regions. Interviews revealed the cultural significance of Tulsi: including origins, knowledge exchange, religious connotations, and medicinal uses. With migration, sharing of plants and seeds has been seen as Tulsi plants are widely grown in South Asian (SA) households across the UK. Vouchered Ocimum specimens (n = 33) were obtained to create reference DNA barcodes which were not available in databases. A potential species substitution of O. gratissimum instead of O. tenuiflorum amongst SA participants was uncovered. Commercial samples (n = 47) were difficult to authenticate, potentially due to DNA degradation during manufacturing processes. This study highlights the cultural significance of Tulsi, despite a potential species substitution, the plant holds a prestigious place amongst SA families in the UK. DNA barcoding was a reliable way to authenticate Ocimum species.

Abstract:
Ocimum traditionally known as Holy Basil or Tulsi is an available herb plenty across the country. Traditionally, it is used against a number of human diseases. In this present study, the metabolites present in the ethanolic extracts of nine Ocimum taxa, O. tenuiflorum L. (Green and purple type) two morphotypes of O. basilicum L., (Babu and Marua tulsi) two morphotypes of O. gratissimum L. (Ram and Ajowan tulsi) and each one from O. americanum L. (Bon tulsi), O. × africanum Lour. (Lebu tulsi), and O. kilimandscharicum Guerke.grown naturally in Dakshin Dinajpur district, West Bengal, India were identified using Gas chromatography–mass spectrometry (GC-MS). Among the identified metabolites, carbohydrates, aliphatic alcohols, aliphatic acids, fused ring aromatic hydrocarbon, amino acids, phenolic compounds, quinone, steroids, terpenoids and vitamin E were the chief constituents. The occurrence of these metabolites describes the high biological activity of Ocimum species. Furthermore, in vitro antibacterial activities were also identified against four bacterial strains, Staphylococcus aureus (MTCC 96), Bacillus cereus (MTCC 1305), Proteus vulgaris (MTCC 1771) and Escherichia coli (MTCC 2939). Tested bacterial strains were taken from the Institute of Microbial Technology, Chandigarh, India The results indicated that the ethanolic extracts of all the nine Ocimum taxa have satisfactory minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) values against the tested microorganisms. O. tenuiflorum has the highest (91.03 %) metabolic content whereas O. × africanum has the minimum. This would definitely serve as a scientific basis of the traditional use of basil against human ailments.

Abstract:
The ligand-activated transcription factor peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor (PPAR) has become a major target for type 2 diabetes. It belongs to the nuclear receptor superfamily, which controls the expression of proteins involved in glucose metabolism, lipid metabolism, adipocyte proliferation and differentiation, and insulin sensitivity. Ocimum tenuiflorum, often known as Krishna tulsi, is the most sacred herb in India. It was utilized for a variety of medicinal purposes. Therefore, it is of interest to document the molecular docking analysis data of PARγ modulators from Ocimum tenuiflorum. Four of the twenty substances (rosmarinic acid, permethrin, luteolin, and isosakuranetin) have a considerable binding affinity for the PPARγ. These phytochemicals are a source of potential anti-diabetic medicines.

Abstract:
Ocimum tenuiflorum L. is found throughout semitropical and tropical parts of Southeast Asia. In Nepal, O. tenuiflorum L. is popular with two variants: Krishna Tulsi consisting of purple-colored leaves and Sri Tulsi consisting of green-colored leaves. O. tenuiflorum L. is considered the queen of herbs and is a traditionally and clinically proven medicinal herb for its application and efficacy. However, no commercial pharmaceutical preparations of O. tenuiflorum L. are available using effervescent vehicles. Therefore, the present study aimed to compare the antioxidant activity of leaves from the two varieties of O. tenuiflorum L. and formulate and evaluate the quality parameters of effervescent granules of the potent extract. The antioxidant activity of O. tenuiflorum L. ethanolic extracts was evaluated by DPPH radical scavenging assay at 1, 10, and 100 µg/mL concentrations, where ascorbic acid was used as the positive control. The antioxidant activity of purple-leafed O. tenuiflorum L. was found to be higher than that of green-leafed O. tenuiflorum L. Therefore, effervescent granules of the ethanolic extract of purple-leafed O. tenuiflorum L. were formulated using the pharmaceutical excipients tartaric acid, citric acid, and sodium bicarbonate and the quality parameters of the granules were evaluated. The formulated granules met the quality parameters assessed from the angle of repose, bulk density, tapped density, Carr’s Index, Hausner’s ratio, effervescent cessation time, and stability studies. Thus, the formulated effervescent granules of O. tenuiflorum L. can be used for therapeutic purposes or as a functional food.

<p><strong>Abstract.</strong> The microbial contamination of water is a world-wide environmental problem. Many traditional methods are being used in various parts of the world to purify the water. According to World Health Organization, 80% of world's population living in rural areas relies on herbal traditional medicines as their primary health care. So the study on properties and uses of medicinal plants are subject to growing interests. An attempt was made to assess the antibacterial properties of certain selected herbs such as <i>Ocimum sanctum</i> (Krishna Tulsi), <i>Ocimum kilimandscharicum</i> (Karpoora Tulsi), <i>Ocimum tenuiflorum</i> (Ram Tulsi), <i>Azadirachta indica</i> (Neem), <i>Simarouba glauca</i> (bitterwood), <i>Caesalpinia sappan</i> (Pathimugam), <i>Cuminum cyminum</i> (Jeerakam), <i>Vetiveria zizanioides</i> (Ramacham), <i>Saraca indica</i> (Ashoka tree) and <i>Murraya koenigii</i> (curry leaves) against different bacteria such as total coliforms, faecal coliforms, <i>Escherichia coli</i>, <i>Bacillus</i> sp. and <i>Serratia</i> sp. The antibacterial activity of the plant extracts was determined by spread plate method, Kirby–Bauer disc diffusion method, most probable number (MPN) method and Petrifilm method. The shelf life of the herbal extract <i>Ocimum sanctum</i> (Krishna Tulsi) was also determined using a UV-visible spectrophotometer. A comparison study of the antibacterial efficiency of the three varieties of <i>Ocimum sanctum, Ocimum kilimandscharicum</i> and <i>Ocimum tenuiflorum</i> was also done. After the complete analysis of the antibacterial activity of different herbs, <i>Ocimum sanctum</i>, the most efficient herb, was selected and treatment methods based on the herb were developed so that it can be used conveniently in various households. Therefore <i>Ocimum sanctum</i> plant can be further subjected to isolation of therapeutic antimicrobial and pharmacological evaluation.</p>

Abstract:
Abstract Tulsi is widely known as a medicinal plant and possesses many health benefits. The pharmacological study regarding the compounds in tulsi has been widely studied, but the sensory characteristic and consumer acceptance of this plant has never been conducted previously. This study aims to investigate the sensory characteristics of functional beverages made from tulsi leaves and to determine which sensory attributes that able to promote consumers’ acceptance. Three samples of tulsi beverages were evaluated by the trained panels (n=14) using Quantitative Descriptive Analysis (QDA) while the acceptance test was assessed by 61 consumers. A total of 27 key attributes of tulsi beverages were generated during the QDA evaluation. All the samples have different sensory characteristics. The aroma and taste of ginger, citrus, lemongrass, basil, mint, honey, sweetness, and aftertaste of the hot sensation of ginger were positively associated with consumers’ liking. In contrast, bitter aroma, watery-like texture, astringent and astringent aftertaste were contribute to consumers’ disliking. This study could be used as a preliminary study for developing new functional beverage products from tulsi leaves by considering the sensory characteristic and key attributes for the liking of tulsi beverages.

Abstract:
There are several possible uses of silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) in energy storage systems, antimicrobial sensors, and other biological sensors. Silver nanoparticles were synthesized using extract obtained from leaves of Azadirachta Indica (Neem), Ocimum Tenuiflorum (Tulsi), and Mentha (Mint). Thin films of various samples were then prepared using drop-cast method. In order to study their structural properties, they are then characterized with different analytic techniques like X-ray diffractometer (XRD) and ultraviolet visible Spectroscopy. To compare the particle size of NPs obtained from different plant leaves, XRD characterization was done. XRD patterns ratifies synthesis of silver nanoparticles in single crystalline phase and confirms the FCC structure with a particles size of 13.58 nm (obtained from neem extract). UV-Visible absorption spectrum for different samples neem, tulsi and mint were recorded in the wavelength ranges of (270-600) nm.
