Both plants are derived from the family of Rutaceae which belongs to shrubs that have many branches and twigs. This study aimed to carry out the antibacterial assay of the Rutaceae family. This study used a literature study approach, which references were obtained through 3 Journal sources, namely Google scholar, pubmed, and thscience direct. Furthermore the selected research article which met the criteria was reviewed. Based on the search done, it obtained 7 articles and identified antibacterial activity of lime and Kaffir Lime.
