The iam of this paper is to review the literature on basil, samples were collected from different farms of Khartoum state, specifically the oil that is extracted by cold extraction with water (ocimum basilicum oil extracted by hydro steam distiliation) was to determine the percentage of oil1.37% and detected Chemical properties, which include iodine number and acidity and peroxide and ester value and physical properties, which include viscosity and refractive index, color and density and its compounds by gas chromatography instrument(GC/MS) with mass selective detector .
