The treatment group consisted of ethanol extract of tamarind leaves with concentration 75%, 50%, 25% and 12.5%. The control group consisted of vancomycin 30 mg as a positive control and sterile distilled water as negative control. Antibacterial activity test carried out by disc diffusion method. The parameters observed were inhibition zone diameter formed in the median. Data were analyzed by ANOVA and followed by the Smallest Real Differences Test (LSD) at ? = 0.05 level and translated according to the Grenwood classification > 20 mm, 16-20 mm, 11-15mm and
