摘要

To investigate the antifungal activities of the extracts and sub-fractions of Phlomis olivieri

Verbascum speciosum

Sambucus ebulus and Erigeron hyrcanicus

four Persian medicinal plants used in Iranian folk medicine. Evaluation of the antifungal activity was performed on the clinical isolates of pathogenic fungi including Aspergillus fumigatus

A. flavus

Trichophyton mentagrophytes

T. rubrum

T. verrucosum

Microsporum canis

M. gypseum and Epidermophyton floccosum

and the yeast Candida albicans. The susceptibility tests were done by agar well diffusion method. The minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) and minimum fungicidal concentration (MFC) of active extracts and sub-fractions were measured using method of National Committee for Clinical Laboratory Standards (NCCLS). Only P. olivieri sub-fractions were found to have fungicidal activity among the other investigated plants. The MIC and MFC was found to be high in petroleum ether

chloroform and ethyl acetate fractions (100 and 200 mg/mL) against the studied pathogenic fungi and the yeast Candida albicans. P. olivieri sub-fractions significantly inhibited the growth of all pathogenic fungi and the yeast studied. If the antifungal activity of P. olivieri is confirmed by in vivo studies and if the responsible compound (s) is isolated and identified

it could be a good remedy for mycotic infections.
