This disease may not cause mortality, but it is a clinically significant disorder that is naturally chronic and difficult to treat. The one of material that can be antifungal agent is salak peel. Salak peel has flavonoids compound that can be antifungal and antibacterial. The type of this research is a laboratory experimental research with factorial treatment. The result of experiment testing is both extracts and lotions of Salak (Salacca zalacca) peel can inhibit the growth of T. mentagrophytes.
