As well known Ecuador is a country with a wide plant diversity and a large
percentage is represented by medicinal plants, why they have developed numerous
research on ethnomedicine of Ecuador, however there are limited research done that
focus on species of the Ecuadorian highlands, this research work has taken as a
reference one of the most commonly used species in this region, "The mosquera"
(Croton elegans), one to which they have attributed many medicinal properties,
commonly it is used as: anti inflammatory, healing, antibacterial and antifungal, the
latter being characteristic that suggests an investigative interest, thereby evaluating
activity against fungal strains causing skin problems, and applying various
methodologies to phytochemical and microbiological level such as: maceration,
percolation, phytochemical screening and methods of sensitivity Kirby Bauer and
Kirby Bauer modified, It was determined that the four fungal strains used only
Candida albicans ATCC 10231 has no inhibition against the plant extract at any
concentration; while filamentous strains Trichophyton mentagrophytes ATCC 9533,
Microsporum canis ATCC 36299 y Trichophyton rubrum ATCC 28188 responded
positively to both concentrations of fluid extract (25% and 50%), nevertheless
greater inhibitory halo was obtained at 50% concentration, concluding that Croton
elegans has antifungal activity only on origin filamentous strains used. |
