摘要：Vitamin A is a vitamin that acts as an immunostimulant. This research aims to determine whether the administration of vitamin A can reduce parasitaemia of Plasmodium berghei in Switzerland strain mice. This research used 24 mice Switzerland strain mice 6-8 weeks old weighing 20-30 grams/tail. Research conducted experimentally by using time series design. In this research, the provision of vitamin A treatment with 3 doses of variation is 0 IU/g BW, 35 IU/g BW and 70 IU/g BW as well as the negative control group, with each group consisting of 6 mice. Vitamin A was given 1 hour before infection then treated mice to mice in the negative control group died. Thin blood smears were made 2 days and parasitaemia was calculated by Giemsa staining. Parasitaemia data were analyzed with ANOVA. Significant results then followed by a further test Post hoc at 1% error level. ANOVA test results for the treatment group B, C and D obtained value of p <0.001 for each treatment group. It is claimed that there are significant differences in the treatment given. Likewise for further Post hoc testing that has been done obtained value of p <0.001. It can be concluded that the administration of vitamin A affects the reduction in parasitaemia of Plasmodium berghei in Switzerland strain mice.
