| Abstract | ||
| The current study was performed to evaluate antifungal potential of acetonic extracts of Syzygim aromaticom’s flowers (S. aromaticom) and Mentha longifolia’s Leaves (M. longifolia) on the growth of pathogenic Candida albicans. The results illustrated that the growth of the yeast was inhibited in both extracts when acetonic extract (20, 40, 60) mg/ml of S. aromaticom, Inhibition percentage of C. albicans were 56.22%, 67.22% and 100% respectively, compared to the same concentrations of leaves extract M. longifolia the inhibition percentage of C. albicans were 4.4%, 14.59% and 24.52%, respectively. Also, the results showed that t increasing the concentrations of acetonic extract led to increase the percentage of inhibition of C. albicans. Our study concluded that extract of S. aromaticom) could possibly be used for future pharmaceutical applications as anti-canadiasis better than M. longifolia. | ||
