Ocimum x citriodorum
Lemon-scented basil hybrid popular in Southeast Asian cuisine; used in Indonesian and Thai folk medicine for digestive and respiratory conditions.
Lemon Basil (Ocimum x citriodorum) is a lemon-scented hybrid basil used in Southeast Asian cuisine and traditional medicine, primarily as a carminative for digestive complaints and for respiratory conditions. It exhibits anti-inflammatory, antimicrobial, and antioxidant properties, with key active compounds including citral, linalool, geraniol, and eugenol.
The volatile oils, particularly citral and linalool, relax gastrointestinal smooth muscle via modulation of calcium channels and nitric oxide pathways, providing carminative effects. Eugenol and geraniol inhibit cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) and nuclear factor-kappa B (NF-κB) signaling, contributing to anti-inflammatory activity. Antimicrobial actions involve disruption of microbial cell membranes by terpenoids, while antioxidant effects are mediated through free radical scavenging and upregulation of endogenous antioxidant enzymes.
