Comparative in vitro assessment of oak (Quercus infectoria) and Carob (Ceratonia siliqua) extracts as natural alternatives to metronidazole against Trichomonas gallinae
Findings suggest that Q. infectoria and C. siliqua extracts exhibit potent antitrichomonal activity, comparable to metronidazole, in inhibiting T. gallinae trophozoite growth in vitro, making them viable natural alternatives.
