Abstract:
Most vegetables, including Vernonia amygdalina (bitter leaf) and Ocimum gratissimum (scent leaf), play a vital role in supporting the healthy development of human organs. This study compared the nutritional values of these two vegetables through mineral and proximate analyses. Fresh samples of bitter leaf (Vernonia amygdalina) and scent leaf (Ocimum gratissimum) were obtained from a personal farm in Edjeba, located in the Warri South Local Government Area of Delta State. The vegetables were air-dried at room temperature, ground, and sieved using a 2mm sieve, then stored in sterile Ziploc bags

Abstract:
Scent leaf or Ocimum gratissimum is introduced to test its effectiveness as herbal purgatives in the treatment/eradication of gastrointestinal parasites in native chickens. Therefore, considering the side effects and the extracts and biologically protozoan builds against drugs, more attention should be given to the extracts and biologically active compounds which are isolated from plant species commonly used in herbal medicine. Hence, there is need for the study of potentials use of scent leaf (Ocimum gratissimmum) in the control of gastro-intestinal parasites of local free range chicken. A to

Abstract:
The leaves of Ocimum gratissimum having some ethno-medicinal applications were investigated. The phytochemicals screening of the leaves using Standard Methods and further analysis with HPLC revealed the presence of tannins, saponins, flavonoids, alkaloids, phlobatanins, terpenoids, steroids and cardiac glycosides. The elemental analysis was carried out using Atomic Absorption Spectrophotometer (AAS). The result revealed the presence of Na (0.311±0.049), Ca (0.138 ±0.111), Mg (1.712 ± 0.537), K (0.261± 0.077), Mn (0.457±0.107, Pb (0.005 ± 0.002), Zn (0.200 ±0.06), Cu (0.803±0.818), N (0.286± 0.

Millions of people worldwide suffer with acne vulgaris, a common skin ailment marked by the development of comedones, papules, pustules, and in more severe cases, nodules and cysts. There has been a boom in research into alternative remedies, especially herbal pharmaceuticals, due to growing resistance to traditional therapy and side effects associated with long-term use. Two well-known herbs with strong anti-acne effects are Ocimum gratissimum (scent leaf/ African basil) and Azadirachta indica (neem).

People from various socioeconomic backgrounds use and consume a vast variety of condiments on a regular basis. Therefore, condiments could be used as dietary transporters for micronutrients to counteract deficits in micronutrients, which is a problem in many nations, including Nigeria. Vegetables are a vital component of a balanced diet and a good source of minerals, antioxidants, and bioactive compounds, among other nutrients.

In this study, three spices of plant extracts: scent leaf (Ocimum gratissimum), tumeric (Curcuma longa) and the fruit of Negro-pepper (Xylopia aethiopica) were studied for their antimicrobial activities. Standard methods were adopted for extraction of soluble components in them. Antimicrobial potentials of the three extracts were tested separately and in consortium against selected spoilage microorganisms. Results showed that Ocimum gratissimum, Curcuma longa and Xylopia aethiopica had antimicrobial effects on some of the microorganisms tested. However, none of the extracts were able to inhibi
