Abstract

In developing countries (DC), general mortality is mainly due to infectious diseases which outweigh cardiovascular and degenerative diseases as well as cancers. Among these, opportunistic candidiasis is on the rise among HIV/AIDS patients. AIDS remains the leading cause of death in young adults in developing countries. In view of the growth of infectious diseases, our research team tested the chromatographic fractions of the X1-2 Eucalyptus torelliana extract (ornamental plants) on the in vitro growth of candida albicans, candida tropicalis and candida glabrata. Among these fractions, fraction F5 showed the best activity on the three germs tested with a CMF value of 62.5 µg/mL for each germ.
