Antifungal activities of Entada spiralis crude extracts against damping off disease / Aiza Harun, Neni Kartini Che Mohd Ramli and Siti Zaiton Mat So'ad
Entada spiralis which is traditionally known as 'beluru' or 'sintok' is a liana or woody climber that grows wildly in Malaysia. From generation, it is believed that the stem bark and its fruit were used traditionally for many years in the health care system such as shampoo, body...

Entada spiralis which is traditionally known as 'beluru' or 'sintok' is a liana or woody climber that grows wildly in Malaysia. From generation, it is believed that the stem bark and its fruit were used traditionally for many years in the health care system such as shampoo, body wash and to treat syphilis, insect bites and blood defecate. However, the stem bark and the leaves of this species have not been studied pharmacologically by any researchers. Our current study is carrying out the extraction of stem bark and leaves of Entada sp. by using organic solvents with different polarity and to test the bioactivity of the crude extraction. The ground air dried stem and leaves were soaked at room temperature in petroleum ether, chloroform and methanol. Bioactivity of the crudes extracts of both stem and leaves were tested on antimicrobial activity. Four species of fungal plant pathogens were tested for antifungal activity i.e. Rhizoctonia solani, Pythium sp., Fusarium sp. and Phytophthora sp.
