Abstract

The chemical composition of the essential oil of flowering aerial parts of Ocimum tenuiflorum L. growing in the North West Karnataka, India, was investigated. The hydro-distilled essential oil was analyzed by gas chromatography equipped with flame ionization detector (GC-FID) and gas chromatography coupled with mass spectrometry (GC/MS). Results demonstrated that the oil was found to be rich in phenyl derivative compounds (83.8%). The major compound was identified as methyl eugenol (82.9%) among twenty-six compounds, comprising 98.9% of the total oil.

  • Variation in qualitative and quantitative chemical profiles of basil essential oil may be due to variety of plant and growing conditions such as season, climate or soil conditions.

    “Joshi and Si [46] and Murarikova et al. [12] described that variation in the qualitative and quantitative chemical profiles of the basil essential oil may be due to the variety of plant and their growing conditions such as season, climate or soil conditions.”

    From Aromatic Profiles of Essential Oils from Five Commonly Used Thai Basils (2018) · cites this paper as [46]

    The Introduction (p. 99–100) reports different essential-oil constituents in Ocimum tenuiflorum from several countries, supporting the observation that chemical profiles vary. The paper does not attribute that variation to plant variety, season, climate, or soil; its own analysis is of Krishna Tulsi collected at one location and time. (LLM, conf=0.78)

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
