Similar to basil, it has a pungent flavor and contains essential oils which have been used ethnomedicinally. In Amazonia, the aromatic leaves are used as an admixture in ayahuasca brews. The plant is called xkakaltun in Mexico's Yucatan Peninsula, where it is considered a honey plant and is used as an abortifacient.[3] It is referred to in Brazil as {{lang|pt|alfavaca}} and has also been referred to as albahaca del monte,[4] Amazonian basil, wild sweet basil, wild mosquito plant, least basil, Peruvian basil, spice basil, alfavaca-do-campo, manjericao and estoraque.[5][6] Essential oilEssential oil from O. campechianum has been tested for its in vitro food-related biological activities and found comparable to the essential oils of common basil and thyme and superior in its capacity as an antioxidant. It has also been found to possess antifungal activity against food spoiling yeasts. The leaves have the highest concentration of essential oil (4.3%).[7][8]References1. ^{{GRIN | accessdate=September 26, 2012}} {{Taxonbar|from=Q7076504}}{{Lamiaceae-stub}}2. ^Kew World Checklist of Selected Plant Families 3. ^{{cite book|last1=Rätsch|first1=Christian|title=The Encyclopedia of Psychoactive Plants: Ethnopharmacology and its Applications|date=2005|publisher=Park Street Press|location=One Park Street, Rochester, Vermont 05767|isbn=978-089281978-2|page=573}} 4. ^{{cite web|title=Albahaca|url=http://www.plantasquecuran.com/plantas-medicinales/albahaca.html|website=Plantas Que Curan|accessdate=17 June 2014|language=es}} 5. ^{{Cite web | url=http://www.gourmet.com/food/gourmetlive/2012/091912/amazon-food-glossary | title=Epicurious – Recipes, Menu Ideas, Videos & Cooking Tips}} 6. ^https://www.drugs.com/npp/amazonian-basil.html 7. ^{{cite journal|doi=10.1002/ffj.1374 | volume=20 | issue=2 | title=Chemical composition of a methyl-(E)-cinnamateOcimum micranthum Willd. from the Amazon | journal=Flavour and Fragrance Journal | pages=161–163 | last1 = Rosas | first1 = F.| year=2005 }} 8. ^{{cite journal|last=Sacchetti|first=G.|author2=Medici A |author3=Maietti S |author4=Radice M |author5=Muzzoli M |author6=Manfredini S |author7=Braccioli E |author8=Bruni R. |title=Composition and functional properties of the essential oil of amazonian basil, Ocimum micranthum Willd., Labiatae in comparison with commercial essential oils.|journal=J Agric Food Chem|date=2004-06-02|series=52|issue=11|pages=3486–91|pmid=15161220|doi=10.1021/jf035145e|volume=52}} 7 : Ocimum|Flora of South America|Flora of North America|Plants described in 1768|Flora of the Caribbean|Medicinal plants|Edible plants |
