Sprue is one of the disease that caused by husk mushroom that is called intermediate mycosis.
The mushroom, which has characteristic intermediate mycosis, is Candida albicans. Some people
that get sprue caused by the lack of hygiene in mouth area and there is infection in the mouth so
that the mouth is the fertile media for the growth of mushroom in order to reproduce. The
characteristic of sprue is marked by there is hurt place or white pocks which are ellipse inside the
mouth especially the gum, the lip, and the tongue. There is two ways how to cure sprue, the first
is using chemical drugs such as Nystatin and using traditional drugs. The curing by traditional
drug is hoped can be well balanced against chemical drugs, which are expensive. Beside that, the
chemical drugs have the very high effect if compared by traditional drugs that their effect is
relatively little. The traditional plants that can be used to cure sprue are the leaves of
(Anacardium occidentale L.) which have anakardat acid and the flowers of fruit star (Averrhoa

bilimbi L.) which have format acid.
The goal of this research is to know the antifungal ability, mixture between the leaves of
(Anacardium occidentale L.) and the flower of fruit star (Averrhoa bilimbi L.) in various of
concentrations against the growth of mushrooms Candida albicans by in vitro. To know the
combination of treatment and the concentration of the best of the antifungal ability against the
growth of mushroom Candida albi cans by in vitro. The type that used in this research is
Factorial Design. The attempt device uses Complete Random Device (RAL) by treatment six
times (concentration in 50%, 60%, 70%, 80%, 90%, and 100%) and repetition three times. The
population of this research is the mushroom Candida albicans, which is got from Poli Kulit
Rumah Sakit dr. Soetomo Surabaya. The technique of taking sample is done by simple random
sampling. This research was done in December 27, 2007 in the Medical Laboratory of
Muhammadiyah University of Malang. The research indicator is the antifungal ability against the
growth of mushroom Candida albicans. The data that is got analyzed in Anava 2 and continued
with The Duncan Test 1% and The T Test.
The result of this research shows that the antifungal ability, mixture between the leaves of
(Anacardium occidentale L.) and the flower of fruit star Averrhoa bilimbi L.) in various of
concentrations influence the growth of mushrooms Candida albicans by in vitro which is showed
in its diametre of the pursuit zone. The best treatment average is A3B6 (mixture the leaves of
(Anacardium occidentale L.) and the flower of fruit star at concentration 100%). In this research
has been proven that the leaves of (Anacardium occidentale L.) and the flower of fruit star can be

used as alternative drugs to cure sprue that caused by the mushroom Candida albicans.
