This tree cultivate all over the world.The fruit of Ziziphus sativa is very delicious. It is equally liked among younger and children. It has sweet taste. Ziziphus sativa is traditionally important plant for medical purpose. The antifungal activity of Ziziphus sativa was checked by disc agar diffusion method. Ziziphus sativa activity was checked against Candida Albicans and Sacchromyces cerevisiae. Four different solvent extracts were used to check the antifungal activity. Extract of plant in was ethyl acetate, chloroform, n-hexane and water were under study. All extract showed different effects against both strains. Ethyl acetate showed best results in both strains. 1% of ethyl acetate showed 25mm zone of inhibition against Candida Albicans and Sacchromyces cerevisiae. On the other hand n-hexane showed no results against both strains. So it is concluded that chloroform, n-hexane, ethyl acetate and water were all antifungal agents | en_US |
