The jicama seed extract was divided into 5 treatments with one control namely 1.00%, 5.00%, 10.00% and 15,00% with each one three repetitions. The results of the study were analyzed using parametric prerequisite tests. The normality test is used Kolmogorov-Smirnov, and Homogeneity test used Levene's test.
