The antimicrobial effect of ethanol extracts of five plant extract against human bacteria namely Streptococcus pyogenes ATCC® 19615™, Streptococcus pneumoniae ATCC 49619, Staphylococcus saprophyticus ATCC®15305, Hafnia alvei ATCC 51873, Acinetobacter baumannii ATCC 19606,Enterococcus faecalis ATCC 29212,Proteus mirabilis ATCC 35659,Serratia marcescens ATCC 274, Staphylococcus aureus ATCC® 2592 were determined using broth microdiluation method. The results showed that Maximum Inhibition Concentration was observed with ethanol extract of Sesamum indicum against S.aureus, S. pyogenes, S. pneumonia, A. baumannii, E. faecalis and P. mirabilis (100 ppm). Minimum Inhibition Concentration was observed with ethanol extract of Satureja hortensis L. against S. pyogenes, S. pneumonia, S. saprophyticus, A. baumannii and P.mirabilis (25ppm).
