Comparative pharmacognostic study of these &lt;em&gt;Ocimum&lt;/em&gt; species is unspecified. Growing demand of &lt;em&gt;Ocimum&lt;/em&gt; plants demands quality standards for correct identification of desired &lt;em&gt;Ocimum &lt;/em&gt;species. &lt;strong&gt;Objectives:&lt;/strong&gt; Hence aim of present study is to establish comparative pharmacognostical, phytochemical and biological standards for most commonly found and morphologically confusing five species of &lt;em&gt;Ocimum&lt;/em&gt;. &lt;strong&gt;Methods:&lt;/strong&gt; Macroscopic, microscopic, preliminary phytochemical evaluations, extraction of essential oils, TLC analysis, &lt;em&gt;in vitro&lt;/em&gt; antioxidant and antimicrobial potency of selected five species carried out and compared. &lt;strong&gt;Results:&lt;/strong&gt; This comparative study reports that &lt;em&gt;O. sanctum&lt;/em&gt; should be preferred in medicine use among selected five species based on phytochemical composition, antioxidant and antimicrobial potency.&lt;/p&gt;

Many studies of the species &lt;em&gt;Ocimum gratissimum&lt;/em&gt; &lt;em&gt;Lamiaceae&lt;/em&gt; have reported biological activities in the essential oil and extracts of various parts of the plant. &lt;strong&gt;Objective: &lt;/strong&gt;Evaluate the antibacterial and resistance-modifying activity of the essential oil of &lt;em&gt;O. gratissimum&lt;/em&gt; (OEOg) and its major compound eugenol. &lt;strong&gt;Materials and Methods:&lt;/strong&gt; OEOg was extracted by hydrodistillation, and eugenol was obtained commercially. Multiresistant strains of &lt;em&gt;Escherichia coli and Staphylococos aureus&lt;/em&gt; were used to test for drug activity. Antibacterial and resistance-modifying activity of OEOg and eugenol was evaluated by gaseous contact. &lt;strong&gt;Results: &lt;/strong&gt;Chemical analysis of OEOg demonstrated the presence of eugenol and other compounds such as 1,8-cineole and &amp;beta;-selinene as well. In the evaluation of the antibacterial activity, both OEOg and eugenol were unable to form a bacterial growth inhibition zone at any of the concentrations tested. However, the modulation tests with amikacin and erythromycin identified synergism with OEOg and eugenol against &lt;em&gt;E.&amp;nbsp; coli &lt;/em&gt;and&lt;em&gt; S. aureus&lt;/em&gt;. Gentamicin combined with OEOg showed antagonism against &lt;em&gt;S. aureus&lt;/em&gt; but synergism against&lt;em&gt; E.coli&lt;/em&gt;. When gentamicin was combined with eugenol, there was also synergism against &lt;em&gt;S&lt;/em&gt;. &lt;em&gt;aureus&lt;/em&gt;&lt;em&gt;, &lt;/em&gt;whereas no effect was seen against &lt;em&gt;E. coli&lt;/em&gt;. &lt;strong&gt;Conclusion: &lt;/strong&gt;Given the results obtained in this study, it is concluded that OEOg and eugenol may eventually represent a new therapeutic tool against antibiotic-resistant bacteria.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">1</style></issue><work-type><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Original Article</style></work-type><section><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">4</style></section><auth-address><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">&lt;p style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Maria Karollyna do Nascimento Silva&lt;sup&gt;*&lt;/sup&gt;, Vict&amp;oacute;ria Regina De Alencar CarvalhoandEdinardo Fagner Ferreira Matias&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
