Anti-microbial activity of this plant identified by measuring the inhibition halo diameter and Minimum Inhibitory Concentration (MIC) for levels: Escherichia coli, Staphylococcus aureus, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Salmonellatyphi, Candida albicans and by method of Plait sump and diluting in cultivate liquid environment, respectively. According to performed study , it can be concluded that extracts of the stem of Euphorbia helioscopia plant has the high anti-bacterial activity.
