| Summary: | Study the inhibitory effect of aqueous and alcoholic extract of four medical plants: <em>Mentha longifolia</em>, <em>Mentha spicata</em>, <em>Cyperus rotundu</em>s and <em>Nigella sativa</em> (black cumin) against some human pathogenic fungi isolated from different clinical cases, showed that (4) from 14 cases gave positive effect on <em>Aspergillus fumigatus</em> bythe frequency 16.67%<br /> Studying the inhibitory effect of aqueous extract against the isolated fungi, showed that aqueous extract of black sead at conc. 30 mg/ml was the best one, which inhibited the growth of <em>A</em>. <em>fumigatus</em> by 87.5%.<br /> Alcoholic extracts of black cumin (10 mg/ml), spearmint (15 mg/ml)and horsemint (30 mg/ml) were more effective against <em>A. fumigatus</em>, and inhibited the growth of <em>A.fumigatus</em> completely. Testing some chemical antifungals against the isolated fungus showed that ketoconazole at concentration (3.5 , 3.0 , 2.5 mg/ml) inhibited the growth by the ratio of 100%, 93.0% and 90. 0 % respectively. |
