Abstract

The ultimate aim of this study was to investigate the efficiency of antifungal agents in various formulations of powdered orange peel and rough horsetail against a sample obtained from a participant's foot, which was suspected of having a fungal infection. The researchers prepared three sets of experimental setups with different formula. It was hypothesized that there are significant differences in inhibition zone measurement between the experimental setups. The study made use of experimental and comparative design to seek the effects of the two ingredients in different formula. The subject of the study was the collected sample from a participant in Liliw, Laguna. For a formal collection of samples, the researchers made a consent and confidential agreement with the participant. After the agreements, the process of interview and physical examination has been done with all positive results of the participant suffering in foot fungal infection, and proceeded on swabbing his foot with the use of required equipment. With the success of sample collection, researchers used observation and experimental approach as instruments in gathering the data. The study's findings revealed a substantial difference in the formula affecting the development of fungus in agar, as indicated by the computed analysis of variance values of 0, which are less than the tabular value of 0.05 at the 5% level of significance. Furthermore, it was recommended that between the two ingredients against foot fungal infection, the rough horsetail should have a higher percentage than Orange Peel in formula in terms of inhibiting a fungal growth.
