Özet: : We determined the antifungal and antimicrobial sensitivity of Euphorbia tirucalli extracts in vitro. Antifungal and antibacterial activity was determined based on the M38-A and M26-A protocols, respectively. The methanolic and ethanolic partitions demonstrated antidermatophytic activity against Trichophyton rubrum (MIC 125 µg/mL for ethanol and MIC 125 µg/mL for methanol) and T. interdigitalis (MIC 500 µg/mL for ethanol; 125 µg/mL for methanol). These partitions also showed antibacterial activity—the ethanolic partition had an MIC of 1.56 ± 0.02 mg/mL against methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (clinical isolate), 6.25 ± 0.04 mg/mL against Staphylococcus aureus BAA-44, 3.13 ± 0.13 mg/mL against Pseudomonas aeruginosa 27853, and 3.13 ± 0.15 mg/mL against Escherichia coli ATCC 25922; the methanolic partition showed an MIC of 1.56 ± 0.02 mg/mL against P. aeruginosa 27853 and 1.56 ± 0.043 mg/mL against E. coli ATCC 25922. These partitions show promise as antimicrobial agents or adjuvants in the treatment of infections caused by these microorganisms.
