Due to the high expense of synthetic medications and the emergence of synthetic antibiotic resistance, many diseases have emerged. Ziziphus jujuba leaf extracts, both aqueous and ethanolic, have demonstrated antibacterial efficacy against Enterococcus faecalis bacterium. Separate ethanol and aqueous extracts were obtained from leaves for demonstration of phytochemical examination of Z. jujuba leaves by using the standard methodology for qualitative analysis of active components and it shows highly significant results. The presence of active components was quantitatively examined using GC/MS analysis. Using the agar well diffusion method, the zone of inhibition was examined using a pure culture of Enterococcus faecalis. The Minimum Inhibitory Concentration was obtained using the Broth Dilution Method. Every analysis was performed three times, and the means of the results were displayed. Natural plant (Ziziphus jujuba) leaf extracts are beneficial against bacterial infections which caused by Enterococcus faecalis.
