N2  - Abstract:  Aqueous extract from Makabuhay ( Tinospora rumphii ) B0erl. Stem was tested on the growth of three Dermatophytes namely: Trichophyton mentagrophytes, Microsporum gypseum and Epidermophyton flocossum. At a concentration of 75%, the plantt extract was found to completely inhibit mycelial grwoth of Trichophyton mentagrophytes. The extract only slowed down the growth of both Microsporum gypseum, and Epidermophyton flocossum at the concentrations used ( i.e. 10%, 15%, 75% and 100% ).  Lower concentrations ( below 75% ) brought about a corresponding increase in the colony size for each organism tested. Of the three test organisms, Microsporum gypseum was found to be the least susceptible,  while Trichophyton mentagrophytes was found to be the most susceptible to the plant extract
