This research was achieved to detect the antibacterial efficacy of Eruca Sativa leaves aqueous extract against Two pathogenic bacteria, Two bacterial isolates Escherichia coli and staphylococcus aureus were isolated from cases of infected wound were used in this study . The anti-bacterial efficacy of Eruca Sativa Italic leaves extract was detected by measuring the inhibition zone in millimeters in 3 plates and the average was considered. The results showed Eruca Sativa extract inhibit both bacterial spp and the mean inhibitory zone for S.aureus was 14.2 mm and for E.Coli was 9.0mm.the mean inhibitory zone of Ampicillin was 20mm for S.aureus and 21.3mm for E. coli distilled water shown no antibacterial activity.

Kademia teaching hospital Laboratory. Results: The results showed The extract inhibits gram positive bacteria and the mean inhibitory zone for strepto coccus faecalis and S. aureus was 10.4 mm and 14.0 mm respectively. Conclusion: The extract had no effect on gram negative bacteria.
