The Elaeocarpus ganitrus has local name as genitri. It has been used traditionally as traditional medicine. This paper reported the phytochemistry and their antibacterial activity on Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli . Several extracts have been afforded using high speed extraction technique using methanol, ethyl acetate and n-hexane as solvents. The extract is composed of alkaloid, tannin, and flavonoid. The negative result is afforded for saponin test. The MIC of all extracts in both bacteria are above 10 mg/mL. Moreover, the quantitative analysis using spiking method using liquid chromatography found a quercetin and rutin in minor quantity of some sample extract.
