The determination of antifungal activity of Thymus serpyllum L. was the major focus of this research work. The oil of Thymus serpyllum was checked for antifungal activity against three test microorganisms i.e., Aspergillus niger, Rhizopus oligosporous, Trichoderma viride and it was carried out by taking 50, 100, 150 and 200 mcg of essential oil. In order to compare the results with standard, three antifungal drugs i.e., Natamycin, Nystatin and Miconazole were employed. The significant antifungal activity of Thymus serpyllum oil was observed for Aspergillus niger.
