Antibacterial activity of euphorbia minuta extracts against some pathogenic bacteria

Abstract AR

A series of experiments were conducted to evaluate the bactericidal activity of extracted crude terpenoids, alkaloids, and phenols from Euphorbia minute.

Study findings clearly indicated that the extracted compounds strongly, affected the growth of all bacterial species under the study.

Extracted terpenoids caused a complete eradication to Klebsiell pneumonia, Staphylococcus aurous, and Pseudomonas aeruginosa in all concentration used.

Followed by alkaloids, and phenols .A direct correlation was found between extract concentration and the inhibitory activity of all extracted compounds.
