ABSTRACT
Ocimum sanctum fixed oil significantly inhibited the rise in protein concentration and dye leakage in peritoneal fluid in experimentally induced peritoneal inflammation in mice. In carrageenan-induced pleurisy in rats, the fixed oil showed significant inhibition of leucocytes migration in the pleural exudate. The results suggest that the fixed oil can inhibit enhancement of the vascular/capillary permability and leucocyte migration following inflammatory stimulus.
