This article presents the results of field studies of the biological diversity of wild plants with antibiotic properties growing in the climatic conditions of Central Kazakhstan.As a result of the field studies, 28 plant species with antibiotic properties belonging to 26 families were found.Among them, the most numerous are from Asteraceae family -8 species and the Lamiaceae family -6 species.The rest of the plant species were distributed according to the principle "one speciesone family".These plants have enormous potential for health, but mainly grow locally or are scattered in small groups and do not form thickets of commercial value in nature.We also conducted a survey among two age groups -18 to 25 years old and 35 to 55 years old.The survey showed that the older generation is more aware of plant species with antibiotic properties and is more willing to choose natural herbs.The second group knows only those types of plants that are part of the famous syrups and lozenges for colds.Based on the above data, it can be concluded that a sufficient number of plants with antibiotic properties grow in the territory of Central Kazakhstan.Given their low cost and availability, we believe that they need to be popularized among the younger generation and recommended for commercial use.
