In this study, the antibacterial aqueous extract of mountain sagebrush, Artemisia sieberi, Artemisia aucheri and Hyssopus officinalis against the  bacteria such as Escherichia coli, Staphylococcus aureus and Listeria monocytogenes were investigated. The extracts were prepared by maceration and then the minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) using the broth micro-dilution and minimal bactericidal concentration (MBC) was measured. The minimum inhibitory concentration of aqueous Artemisia aucheri and Artemisia sieberi against Escherichia coli,  Staphylococcus aureus and Listeria monocytogenes was 160, 80 and 80   mgml-1 respectively. Also, the minimum inhibitory concentration of aqueous extract of hyssop against Escherichia Coli,  Staphylococcus aureus and Listeria monocytogenes was 80, 40 and 40 mgml-1 respectively. Based on these results, the aqueous extracts of the three plants have  the strong antibacterial effect against gram-positive bacteria. The most sensitive organism regarding extracts experiment was Listeria monocytogenes wheras  the most resistant bacteria was Escherichia coli. Among the extracts, the hyssop had  the highest antibacterial activity While  the antibacterial activity of aqueous extract of Artemisia aucheri and Artemisia sieberi  were identical.
