Abstract

The current study is to prepare hydroalcoholic extraction of ipomea pes caprae leaf extract of antifungal activity against candida albicans. Ipomoea pes caprae leaves are extracted using a hydroalcoholic solvent in a 1:9 ratio, which consists of 1 part water as well as 9 parts of the alcohol. These plant extracts are used to treat antifungal diseases. The antifungal activity of ipomoea pes-caprae leaf extract and their respective zone of inhibitions were evaluated. From the results, it was confirmed that the hydroalcoholic extract obtained from the leaves of the ipomoea pes caprae demonstrated exceptional activity as compared to that of a typical medication.
