Description
Summary:In particular, leaf and blossom region of this plant is more effective as compared to stem against Malassezia furfur, The phytochemical characterization of the ethanolic extracts has revealed that the presence of some chemical compounds such as flavonoids, tannins, Coumarin, Anthocyanin, Terpenoid, Alkaloid, Phenol, Saponin, Anthraquinone and Amino acid is likely to be responsible for the antifungal activities. Antifungal activity of the plant extracts and Ag nanoparticles against Malassezia furfur by well diffusion method. 50 pl of the samples were loaded on the wells of sabouraud's dextrose media with 2% olive oil. In the conducted study, bioactive compounds that impart biologically active nature to the plant were screened and results ensured the presence of flavonoid, terpenoid, coumarin, tannin, phenol, alkaloid, saponin, anthocyanin, anthraquinone and amino acids. Antifungal activity of silver nano particles was carried out, zone of inhibition in the plate showed that Ag nanoparticles synthesized using aqueous leaf extract of Ixora coccinea have the antifungal activity against Malassezia furfur through the inhibition zone formation.
