Abstract
Entamoeba histolytica parasite was isolated from a stool sample, cultivated and maintained in vitro using Locke-egg medium (LEM) and Liver infusion agar medium (LIAM). The effect of two aqueous plant extracts (Hibiscus sabdariffa and Glycyrrhiza glabra) on the growth and activity of the parasite in the two culture media was investigated. The aqueous extracts of H. sabdariffa and G. glabra were effective in reducing the parasite size in the LEM medium. With respect to the reproduction rate, the third concentration (19.71 mg/ml) of H. sabdariffa was significantly effective in inhibiting such rate to 57.6 and 83.6% in LEM and LIAM media, respectively, while for G. glabra, no significant difference in the reproduction rate was observed in both culture media.
