Abstract
Cadaver is an important learning media for students of the Faculty of Medicine. Although the cadaver has undergone a preservation process, sometimes the preservative liquids used only protects the cadaver, and does not inhibit the fungal growth. Based on previous research, the fungus found in cadaveric preparations are pathogenic. The objectives of this study were to identify the growing fungus on the cadaver preservative liquid at the Anatomy Laboratory of the Faculty of Medicine, Maranatha Christian University. This is a descriptive experimental study. Samples were taken from three cadaver tubs. Subsequently, the sample was inoculated on Sabouraud's Dextrose Agar and Chromagar medium in a petridish and incubated at room temperature (25⁰) for seven days. After seven days, the morphology of the fungus was observed macroscopically and microscopically. We found Aspergillus sp., Penicillium sp., Epidermophyton sp., and Candida sp on the samples. The study was conducted in December 2017-January 2018 at the Microbiology Laboratory, Faculty of Medicine, Maranatha Christian University and Microbiology Laboratory, Faculty of Medicine, Padjadjaran University.
