Sixteen essential oils were screened in vitro for their fungitoxicity against the two dermatophytes Trichophyton rubrum and Microsporum gypseum. Five oils (from Artemisia nelagrica, Caesulia axillaris, Chenopodium ambrosioides, Cymbopogon citratus and Mentha arvensis) showed strong activity and were assessed for their fungitoxicity against eight other dermatophytes as well as against Aspergillus fumigatus and Cladosporium trichoides. These five essential oils by formulation of ointments were able to cure experimental ringworm in guinea pigs within 7 to 12 days. Artemisia oil was found to be the most effective essential oil.
对16种精油进行了体外筛选，以检测它们对红色毛癣菌和石膏样小孢子菌这两种皮肤癣菌的杀真菌毒性。五种精油（来自黑蒿、腋花苓菊、土荆芥、柠檬香茅和薄荷）表现出较强活性，并对另外八种皮肤癣菌以及烟曲霉和毛状枝孢进行了杀真菌毒性评估。通过配制软膏，这五种精油能够在7至12天内治愈豚鼠的实验性癣病。发现蒿属精油是最有效的精油。
