The antioxidant activity of the hydrodistilleds of four Ocimum varieties growing in Ibague, was determined by means of both, DPPH radical scavenging activity (FRSA) and inhibition of lipid peroxidation, methods.
Bioprospection research with regard these regional natural extracts was increased through the evaluation of the antimicrobial potential against Gram positives,Gram negatives bacteria and a yeast. All the essential oils showed strong antioxidant activity (FRSA) comparable with that of �¿-tocopherol and antimicrobial activity against Candida albicans, mainly exhibited by purple rufle and cinnamon basils.
