Abstract
Fungal infection are the most common causes of superficial or cutaneous infections around the world and remain a major public health problem in spite of the presence of various antifungal drugs. The difficulties associated with the existing prolonged treatment of fungal infection and antifungal drugs resistance remain challenges to select an effective antifungal agent. Plants have medicinal properties due to bioactive phytochemicals that can be potentially explored for the curing of fungal skin infections. Their use as herbal formulations against fungal infection is one of the safe alternative treatments instead of synthetic drugs. Phytochemicals as secondary constituents contain alkaloid, flavonoid, saponin, phenol, and tannin are more potent with respect to their crude counterpart. The present study aims to explore two medicinal plants as Catharanthus roseus, and Tagetes erecta locally available in Krishi Vigyan Kendra (KVK) Banasthali Vidyapith using solvents as water and methanol.
