Dayak onion extract was obtained from maceration method: Experimental. made a variety of dayak ethanol extract with a concentration of 250 mg / kg BW, 500 mg / kg BW, 750 mg / kg BW. Tests used 25 rats divided into 5 groups: positive control, negative control, ethanol extract onion dayak concentration of 250 mg / kg BW,500 mg / kg BW, 750 mg / kg BW. All rats were slashed in the back area using a bisturic knife 2 cm with a depth of 2 mm. Observation of wounds was carried out every day for 14 days, the length of the wound was measured using a caliper. Data analysis was statistically tested using One Way Anova and continued with the LSD (Least Significany Difference) Results: The statistical results show that the onion ethanol extract has effectiveness in wound healing where the most effective dose is a dose of 750 mg / kg BW with 10 days of wound healing time.
