It is also one of the common fungi that infects humans in the mouth and genitals. Presence of candida in the blood is a serious infection. Candida causes of common infection in blood stream in the USA. Candida fungus was isolated from some patients who visited a number of hospitals in Basra governorate for the purpose of obtaining infected samples. The aim is to know the (antagonistic activity) of extracts of a number of plants as an inhibitor of Candida growth
