The effectivity of the Kampanyero (Thevetia peruviana) leaf extract as an inhibitory agent was tested on Candida albicans (DSM 1386) in vitro in extract concentrations of 100%, 75%, and 50%. In the serial dilution test, the results of five trials showed that the extract significantly greater fungicidal activity on Candida albicans compared to 80% ethanol as control. Meanwhile, results of the paper disc sensitivity tests in five trials showed that there was no significant difference in the degree of effectivity among the three extract concentrations. After statistical treatment using Students test, the Kampanyero leaf extract was found to posses inhibitory properties which was equally effective at a 50% concentration 75% and 100% concentration on Candida albicans in vitro.
