Abstract

A total of 30 raw camel's milk samples randomly collected from a camel MilkCenter in Assiut were subjected to fungal analysis and then screening the isolated fungi to enzymatic activations. Results of isolation revealed that: 23 (76.7%) of the examind samples were contaminatd by 58 fungal species belonging to 6 genera. Aspergillus, Absidia corymbifera, Rhizopus stolonifer, Emericella nidulans, Fusarium proliferatum and yeasts. The most predominant species capable to secrete lipase enzyme were A. niger 21 (70%) and A. flavus 13 (43.3%) while the other fungal species could produce lipase enzyme with variable degrees. Protease enzyme could not be detected from all the isolated fungal species and this may be attributed to the protease inhibitors presented in camel's milk. The health and economic significances of the isolated fungi were also discussed.
