Other two extracts showed weak anti spore germination activity against the tested dermatophyte fungi.Methanol extracts showed presence of terpenoids,steroids,alkaloids,saponins and glycosides.Conclusion:Based on the literature,this is the first study which has conducted to inhibit the growth and spore germination of dermatophytic fungi with S.carnosa.Further research also needs to purify and characterize the secondary metabolites from the sponge,5.carnosa for the valuable source of novel substances for future drug discovery.展开更多
