This study was carried out in western mountain district in Libya in the period from April to Jun 2014, aimed to estimate the Entamaeba histolytica infection in association with some Bio factors. 200 fecal samples were taken from 200 participant in screw capped containers. The fecal samples were processed and analyzed in Yafrin hospital, medical labrotary , samples were concentrated by formalin-ether sedimentation. The results revealed that 21% of samples were positive for E. histolytica and the cyst form was detected in all samples with 100% occurevnce in relation to consistency of samples. The semi-solid samples recorded the higher percentage 10% where as the fluidy samples only 2% infection rate. The infection showed a colour dependency relationship it was 15% in brown samples, also in relation to the presence absence of Erythrocytes and Leukocytes. The infection rate was 12% and 9% respectively. The study confirmed that the pathogenicity of E. histolytica is of areciproeal manner, the infection is high 17% in the presence of bacteria and 16.5% in the absence of fungus, and the infection is lower in the absence of bacteria 4% and 4.5% in the absence of fungus, suggesting aclear influence exerted by bacteria in the production of amebic dysentery
