This type of research is in experiment with 6 treatments, namely DMSO as a negative control, an chloramphenicol as positive control and pegagan leaf extract at concentrations 25%, 50%, 75% and 100%. Extraction process of pegagan leaf by maceration method and in the antibacterial test using disc diffusion. Based on the results of the study show that pegagan leaf has antibacterial effect against Staphylococcus aureus which at concetration 25% is 7.7 mm, 50% is 10.37 mm, 75% is 12.4 mm and 100% is 12.18 mm.
