FERNANDEZ-DELGADO, Jany et al. Influence of the nitrogen fertilization on chemical composition of the essential oil of white basil (Ocimum basilicum L.). Rev Cub Quim [online]. 2017, vol.29, n.3, pp. 436-443. ISSN 2224-5421.
Chemical composition of essential oil of white basil, grown with different nitrogen levels it was studied by gas chromatography-flame ionization detector (GC/FID) and gas chromatography coupled to mass spectrometry (GC/MS). The extraction of the essential oil was carried out to samples of fresh and dry leaves, being obtained a significant decrease in the yield and in the content of certain compounds such as the eugenol in the dry samples. The results also show that soil enrichment with nitrogen doesn´t have significant effect on the yield or the chemical composition of essential oil.
