Abstract

The current study included evaluates the aqueous and alcoholic extracts of the Ipomoea carnea plant were used against dermatophytes isolated from school children in the city of Diwaniyah. The study showed the presence of many ringworms spread among children, and the most prevalent is tinea corporis with 33 (35). %) cases, followed by tinea cruris with 24 cases (26%). Males were the most susceptible to infection in most cases, with the exception of Tinea pedis, which was more common in females. As for the isolated species, they were both Trichophytons rubrum and Microsporum canis were superior in terms of the number of isolates with 30 and 28 isolates, respectively. As for as flower extracts, the concentration 30% alcoholic extract was the best in inhibiting fungal growth, as the diameters of the colonies were 1.3, 1, 0.7, 1, 1.2, 1.2 and 6 mm for Trichophyton rubrum, Trichophyton tonsurans, Trichophyton violaceum, Microsporum canis, Microsporum audouinii and Epidermophyton floccosum, respectively, while the diameters of the 30%aqueous extract were 2.4, 2.1, 1.8, 2.3, 2.0, 2 respectively. The leaves Alcoholic extract were the best in compare with water extracts and the concentration 30 % gave the best inhibition for fungal growth, the diameter was 1.3,1,0.7,1.2,1 and 0.6 mm for the fungi for Trichophyton rubrum, Trichophyton tonsurans, Trichophyton violaceum, Microsporum canis, Microsporum audouinii and Epidermophyton floccosum, respectively.
