    abstract = {The purpose of this study is to determine the mechanism in antibacterial activity of medicinal plant
against <I>Candida albicans</I>. In order to best anti-<I>Candida albicans</I> effects for nine kinds of medicinal plant,
<I>Artemisia apiacea</I> Hance, <I>Artemisia annua, Brassica oleracea</I> L., <I>Coptis chinensis, Pogostemon cablin
</I>Bentham, <I>Loranthus chinensis</I> Danser, <I>Ulmus macrocarpa</I> Hance (bark). Medicinal plant ethanol extracts were
examined by disc diffusion method for anti-<I>Candida albicans</I> activity and used fluconazol (50 mg/mL), 99%
ethanol as a positive controls. We measured the area of clear zone and evaluated that the larger size of the area
was more effectives against <I>Candida albicans</I>. The result of this study, <I>Artemisia apiacea</I> Hance value was
highest as 38.2 mm and next <I>Ulmus macrocarpa</I> Hance (bark) 32.8 mm. This result is a result which is equivalent
to about 97% when compared to 39.1 mm of the fluconazol (50 mg/mL) positive control. The present results,
along with the observation, suggested that <I>Artemisia apiacea</I> Hance and <I>Ulmus macrocarpa</I> Hance (bark)
extracts could be anti-<I>Candida albicans</I> agents to cause the infection candidiasis in humans.}
