Abstract
Camel milk nowadays is of great importance either for its nutritional value or for its therapeutic effects, and many studies were done on it in the last decade. In this study the antibacterial and antifungal effect of camel milk and its purified immunoglobulins were evaluated against some microorganisms, so milk samples were collected from apparently healthy animals and were tested against some microorganisms by well diffusion test. The antibacterial activity of camel milk and its purified immunoglobulins was tested against Staph. aureus and    E. coli and camel milk showed marked inhibitory effect against both bacteria while camel milk purified immunoglobulins showed no inhibitory effect against both of them. The antifungal activity of camel milk and its purified immunoglobulins was tested against Candida albicans and Aspergillus fumigatus, but camel milk and its purified immunoglobulins didn't show inhibitory activity against both of them.  Overall, the results indicated that camel milk has antibacterial activity and didn't show antifungal activity, and camel milk purified immunoglobulins didn't show either antibacterial or antifungal activity.
