A photochemical screening of both extracts was revealed the presence of (Tannins, Alkaloids, Risine , Saponin , Phenols , Flavonoides and Glycosides). Sensitivity test of isolates to antibiotics was studied and most of them were resistance to Ceftazidim, Chloramphinicol, Cefotaxime, Amoxicillin and Ampicillin. Most of isolates were sensitive to Amoxicillin /Clavulanic acid and Penicillin (G). All the isolates showed high sensitivity to Norfloxacin and Gentamicine 100%.
