Methods : This study is an experimental research laboratory with post test only control group design. The sample consisted of 30 cultures of Candida sp.(+) on Sabouraud Dextrose Agar (SDA) medium from patients of vaginal candidiasis based on clinical finding and gram staining. The colonies of Candida sp. were diluted in o,9% NaCl to make the solution equal to 0,5 Mc Farland, then 0,1 cc of it was taken and cultivated into SDA medium containing extracts of basil leaves 50% and SDA containing ketoconazole 2%. The media were incubated at 37oC for 24-48 hours. Data obtained by looking at the growth of colonies of candida sp. on both types of media.
