Abstract EN

The current study aimed to investigate the effect of the aqueous and alcoholic extract of wormwood (2.5%, 5%, 10%, 20%, 40%) compared to the antifungals Clotrmnzole, Micanzole on the fungi that infect the feet, which were collected from 21 samples from students of Department of Medical Laboratories- Wadi Alshatti University, the species were identified by morphological passages, urea test and culture on Dermatophyt medium, two fungal species were isolated, T.rubrum and T.metagrophyte, and T.rubrum was the dominant fungus.

The results showed that the alcoholic extract of wormwood was more efficient than the aqueous extract.

The aqueous extract of wormwood did not give any inhibitory effect to the fungal species studied.

As for the antifungals, the inhibition rate of Micanzole was higher than Clotmensole by 37.5%, 25%, respectively.

Also, when Micanzole was used with the extract, it had a better inhibitory ability than Coltmenzole.
