Experiments were conducted to investigate the immunological effects of two species of basils (Holy basil and Thai b asil) grown in aquaponics system on the proliferation of spleen cells of fish and mice in-vitro. It was hypothesize d that proliferation of spleen cells would be greater due to Holy basil extracts compared to the Thai basil extracts, since Holy b asil has been known for its traditional medicinal effects. Basil leaf extracts were prepared at different dilutions (1:1, 1:5, 1:25, and 1:125) and were tested with and without Concanavalin -A (Con-A: a Phyto-mitogen) on the spleen cells of mice and fish (tilapia). Holy basil without Con- A showed more proliferation of spleen cells than Thai basil without Con- A of all dilutions in mice (P<0.05) . On the other hand, in fish, Holy basils at dilutions 1:1 and 1:25 showed an increased spleen cell proliferation (P<0.05 for 1:25 only) compared to Thai basil at those dilutions only . The apparent results proved our hypothesis and showed that Holy basil extracts have prominent effects , compared to Thai basil, on the proliferation of spleen cells in-vitro for both mice and fish.
