January 2024 in “Advances in health sciences research/Advances in Health Sciences Research” The study formulated a hair tonic using the ethyl acetate fraction of sweet potato leaves, demonstrating strong antidandruff activity against Malassezia furfur, comparable to 2% ketoconazole. The optimal formula included 13.4% ethanol, 13.7% propylene glycol, and 2.9% tween 80, with a desirability value of 0.881. The research highlights the potential of sweet potato leaves, rich in secondary metabolites, for hair care applications, particularly in combating dandruff.
