The author was interested to do a research on the benefit of squeezed carrot invitro to the growth of P. ovale. Method : This experimental research use post test only control design.

Sample size two proportion sample formula for 30 research sample.. The data is analized with x2 test, if don’t meet the requirement for x2 test then the alternative Fisher test is done. Result : On the control media all P. ovale growth. The treatment group of 1 % ketoconazol P.ovale growth on 1 media. The treatment group of squeezed carrot P.ovale growth on 3 media. From the Fisher analysis test the value of p > 0,05, suggesting that squeezed carrot have the same effectiveness with 1 % ketoconazol invitro.
