Trichoderma hamatum derived from coffee plant ( Coffea canephora ) rhizosphere inhibit Candida albicans Growth

The Trichoderma hamatum produces various secondary metabolites that can be used as Candida albicans. This research aimed to isolate T. from the coffee (Coffea canephora) rhizosphere and analyze fungal compounds control pathogenic fungus C. was isolated using dilution method, identification used, combining morphological molecular characteristics of ITS rDNA. potency albicans determined by antagonist test double-layer while for culture filtrate, ethyl acetate n-hexane filtrate extracts were carried out agar diffusion method. in most active extract analyzed Gas Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry (GC-MS). inhibits growth antagonistic with 15.53 mm 14.40 inhibition zone. It indicated both had similar activities on (minimum inhibitory concentration, MIC 0.50%) showed more potent against abicans than (MIC 15.00%). potential compound would 9-Octadecenoic acid (Z) methyl ester. ester could an alternative candidate Candida.
