Resum

Dandruff is a common fungal infection caused by the fungus Malassezia furfur. It is a big issue of concern in the human skin health system, as it is characterized by chronic non-inflammatory scalp conditions. These conditions include excessive scaling, itching, and redness. The fungus Malassezia is responsible for causing dandruff. Hence, this research dataset contains data related to the extraction and formulation of shampoo that cures dandruff by using extracts from the herbal leaves of Aloe Vera, Ocimum Sanctum, and Withania Somnifera herbs as an advancement of Ethiopian local herbs via formulation. The presented data provides an information on the optimal formulation process of herbal-based antidandruff shampoo against ketoconazole (KTC) as a control of the experiment. Ethanol-extracted oil from Aloe Vera, Ocimum Sanctum, and Withania Somnifera leaves was used to create three different formulation codes of F1, F2, and F3. The formulated antidandruff shampoo was evaluated in terms of its solid content, foamability, viscosity, dirt dispersion, pH, wetting time, and organoleptic properties. Moreover, the dataset includes information on the antifungal activity of the antidandruff shampoo against Malassezia furfur, as determined by disc diffusion and colony count testing method. The active chemical components responsible for the antidandruff activity of the leaf-extracted oil were also measured using FTIR. (c) 2024 The Author(s). Published by Elsevier Inc.
