After identification of genera their optimum growth condition studied by using the effect of temperature and pH to their dry weight. In the result, the optimum temperature and pH for both filamentous cyanobacteria were 25 ℃ and pH 7.5. Both cyanobacterial strains were extracted with ethanol, methanol and diethyl ether at various concentrations （0.2 g/mL, 0.1 g/mL, 0.005 g/mL） which exhibited the antibacterial activities against Staphylococcus aureus, E. coli and B. subtilus. Inhibition activities of the two cyanobacterial extracts were more effective at high concentration against the tested pathogens at the low concentration, especially those ofLyngbya sp.
