ABSTRACT
The purpose of this study was to compare the effects of Zingiber officinale methanolic extracts on eggs of Fasciola spp. to both positive (Albendazole) and negative (chlorine-free water) control groups in vitro. Microscopic examination of the treated Fasciola spp. eggs with ginger methanolic extract revealed that the various concentrations of Z. officinale methanolic extract used in our study were highly sensitive to it and that their activities differed noticeably from those of the positive (albendazole) and negative (chlorine-free water) controls. The ovacidal influence of ginger extract at a dosage of 5mg/ml with 24, 48, and 72 hr. treatment times was 90.1, 95.8, and 99.2% respectively, compared to the positive and negative control groups, which had ovacidal effects of 83.1 and 16.88%, respectively. But, the ovicidal efficacy of ginger methanolic extract at a dosage of 10 mg/ml is 97.4, 100, and 100% respectively, with treatment times of 24, 48, and 72 hr. While, using ginger extract at doses of 20, 25, and 50 mg/mL with treatment times of 24, 48, and 72 hr. respectively, resulted in 100% ovicidal effectiveness.
