effective to heal the infection of Staphylococcus aureus. It shown by its short healing time
compared with concentration 3% and 5%. One way ANOVA result shows that there was a
significant effect between concentrations 3%, 5%,and 10%. (Fcalculation 27,30>Ftable 3,48),
it meant that high concentration resultingshorter healing time.
