The using ofantibiotics for the chemotherapy of bacterial infections represents one of the most remarkable achievements of last century. Plant essential oils and extracts have been used many thousands of years ago in alternative medicine and natural therapies. The current research aims to study the susceptibility of the Staphylococcus aureus isolates to 13 different antibiotics and testing the effect of five volatile oils extracts on isolated bacteria Twelve samples including wound, osteomeylitis and brain abscess were collected from patients, these samples were cultured on suitable enriched and selective media, identified by microscopical examination and biochemical tests. Susceptibility of the bacterial isolates to 13 different antibiotics and five volatile oils extracts using agar diffusion method were done. The minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) and minimum bactericidal concentration (MBC) were also studied. The effect of combination between five antibiotics and five volatile oils on 12 isolates of s.aureus was also studied using agar diffusion method.
