IN VITRO ANTIFUNGAL ACTIVITY OF THYME OIL AGAINST CANDIDA ALBICANS ISOLATED FROM NAIL FUNGUS (ONYCHOMYCOSIS)
Objectives: The aim of this study is to investigate the antifungal activity of thyme oil against Candida albicans of nail fungus (onychomycosis) from patients in Syria. Methods: An in vitro study was carried out using the following C. albicans strains involved in onychomycosis using well diffusion (WD) testing: C. albicans (ATCC 90028) and 15 strains were compiled from Aleppo Hospital. The antifungal activity of thyme oil was determined in the form of inhibition zone using antifungal assay agar WD testing. In all experiments, the obtained results indicated that thyme oil has inhibitory effects on C. albicans (ATCC 90028) and some 15 strains. Results: This study showed that thyme oil was active against the tested C. albicans strains. Thyme oil was more effective against C. albicans compared to terbinafine. thyme oil may have potential for use in the development of clinically useful antifungal preparations. Conclusion: Thyme oil might be highly effective in the natural prevention treatment of onychomycosis. - Innovare Journal of Life Sciences

Fungal infections with candida species are an important cause of morbidity and mortality. Situation is further worsened by increasing resistance to antifungal drugs. In this study, we sought to investigate the antifungal activity of peppermint oil against candida albicans of urinary tract candidiasis in females from Syria. An in vitro study was carried out using the following Candida albicans strains involved in urinary tract candidiasis using well diffusion (WD) testing: Candida albicans (ATCC 90028) and 15 strains were compiled from Aleppo university Hospital. It was taken from women having urinary tract candidiasis. The antifungal activity of peppermint oil was determined in the form of inhibition zone using antifungal assay agar WD testing. In all experiments, the obtained results indicated that peppermint oil has inhibitory effects on Candida albicans (ATCC 90028) and some 15 strains. This study showed that peppermint oil was active against the tested Candida albicans strains. Peppermint oil was more effective against Candida albicans compared to fluconazole. Peppermint oil may have potential for use in the development of clinically useful antifungal preparations. Therefore, peppermint oil might be highly effective in the natural prevention treatment of urinary tract candidiasis. - international Journal of Pharmaceutical Sciences and Nanotechnology

The main goal of this study was to investigate the antifungal activity of clove oil against candida albicans of vaginal candidiasis in females from Syria. An in vitro study was carried out using the following Candida albicans strains involved in vaginal candidiasis using the well diffusion (WD) testing.Candida albicans (ATCC 90028) and 15 strains were compiled from Aleppo University Hospital. These strains were collected from women having vaginal candidiasis. The antifungal activity of clove oil was determined in the form of inhibition zone using antifungal assay by agar WD testing.In all experiments, the obtained results indicated that clove oil has inhibitory effects on Candida albicans (ATCC 90028) and against15 fungal strains. This study showed that clove oil was active against the tested Candida albicans strains. Clove oil was more effective against Candida albicans compared to the antifungal antibiotics nystatin, ketoconazole and itraconazol. Clove oil may have potential for use in the development of clinically useful antifungal preparations. Therefore, clove oil might be clinically effective in the natural prevention treatment of vaginal candidiasis. - international Journal of Pharmaceutical Sciences and Nanotechnology
