Two filamentous species of algae collected from GC University Lahore were tested against two bacterial species. Extracts of algal species were prepared in three solvents, methanol, ethanol and acetone. Two different concentrations (w/vol.) 1/10 g/ml and 1/100 g/ml were made in each of the above mentioned solvents. Extracts were loaded on agar plates, containing test bacteria, Bacillus substilis and Streptococcus mutans. Methanol and ethanol found to be the best solvents for making extracts that showed good zone of inhibition in bacterial species maximum up to 2.05 cm than the acetone which was up to 0.7 cm. Methanolic and ethanolic extracts could be the alternate of antibacterial agents as both showed results very close to the antibiotics used as control. The mechanism of fate of microbial inhibition must be analyzed in later microbial and phycological researches
