Abstract

Camel milk (Camelus dromedarius) was obtained from 42 samples from different 3 various governorates in Egypt (Aswan–Qena- NewValley) samples were collected from Aswan governorate from two areas 1-Drao (Jaafrah, AlMansuriya, Shatab) 2–Edfu (Al-Awniyeh-Abual-Nasr-Al-Basaliya). While samples were collected from Qena governorate from two areas 1-Naqada area (Al–Zawideh–Toukh–Dnfiq) 2-Mahrousa area (El-Dair algarbe–Tuirat–Naga Attia) and New Valley A1: Gharb El-Mawhob area; A2: Dahws area), all the samples were immediately kept under aseptic conditions and cooled until analyzed. Cow and Buffalo milk samples were obtained from animal production farms, Faculty of Agriculture, Assiut University.

Furthermore, the coliform bacteria, Yeasts and Molds counts, and clostridium count were not detected in all investigated samples.
5.8. Isolation and Identification of Lactic Acid Bacteria (LAB):
Divide the bacterial isolates until the best 25 isolates of bacteria were elected, so it became clear to us from the results that 60% isolates cocci in shape while 40% isolates are rod shape and the results showed that all isolates are positive for gram stain reaction, and that all of them are negative for the catalase test and in terms of growth at different temperatures it was found that all isolates grow at 37 degrees Celsius except for bacterial isolation No. 24, which grows at a temperature of 45 degrees Celsius and bacterial isolation No. 14, which grows at 15 degrees Celsius, it was also found that 64% of the isolates do not grow at high temperatures of 45 degrees Celsius, and 96% of the isolates ferment sucrose and fructose sugar and 32% fermentation of glucose sugar.
5.9 Fractionation of milk and whey Proteins of Camel, Cow and Buffalo milk using Alkaline SDS Page:
Results appear in the region between 6.5 to 15 kDa bundles with a higher protein specific gravity in whey and Camel milk are greater than those found in whey and Buffalo milk and are weak in whey and cow’s milk.
In the region between 15 to 27 kDa is evident the specific gravity of different protein beams is higher, whether in whey or Buffalo milk, while the intensity of the specific gravity of those bundles decreases in whey and cow’s milk, and therefore it is clear the weak specific gravity of the packages and the absence of most of them, which may make us attribute the reason for the weakness of the fermented Camel milk curd to this reason, which is that it does not contain one of the known casein cracks.
It appears in the region between 27 to 115 kDa that the protein bundles of Buffalo whey with many different proteins and high culture, followed by camel whey proteins, while cow whey proteins are very weak and in Buffalo milk samples as well.
Finally, at 240 kDa, we notice the appearance of a dense protein bundle in Camel milk that is not present in Buffalo milk.
5.10. The antimicrobial Activities of Lyophilized Camel milk and its Derivatives:
The antimicrobial activities of lyophilized Camel milk and its derivatives (Casien, Whey, whey protein) were assayed on two pathogenic microorganisms Candida albicans, E. coli. The obtained data revealed that lyophilized raw Camel milk showed the highest antimicrobial activity against Candida albicans, and E. coli, recording clear zone 14.5 and 28.2 mm, respectively and followed by casein recording 8mm clear zone against Candida albicans and 12.8 mm against E. coli. Whereas the antifungal Flucoral (fluconazole, 50 µg/mL) revealed inhibition clear zone 21±2.07 mm against Candida albicans and the antibacterial Tetracycline (50 µg/mL) showed a clear zone 33±1.89 mm against E. coli. So, the lyophilized raw camel milk was used to estimate the minimum inhibition concentration (MIC) as well as assay the impact of Camel milk on pathogenic cell morphology.
5.11. Estimation of the Minimum Inhibition Concentration of Lyophilized Raw Camel milk:
The antibacterial activity of lyophilized raw Camel milk against E. coli ranged from 18-38 mm with minimal lethal concentration of 10 mg/ml, It is worthy to mention that the antimicrobial activity of Camel milk significantly increased by increasing the concentration of Camel milk, suggesting that the fatty acids of Camel milk has the majority of the antimicrobial effect Similar results were reported that monoglycerides of fatty acids possessed the most potent antimicrobial activity against S. aureus. On the other hand, the obtained data revealed that raw Camel milk exhibited antifungal activities against Candida albicans, the causal agent for candidiasis ranged from 11-26 mm with minimal lethal concentration of 10 mg/ml.
5.12. Scanning Electron Microscope:
The pathogenic microbes (Candida albicans, AUMC 13447; Escherichia coli, AUMC B-60) treated with Camel milk was investigated using scanning electron microscopy to illustrate the possible mode of action of Camel milk against the pathogens. The obtained data from scanning electron micrographs showed that Candida albicans yeast cells not treated with Camel milk have uniform globose to sub lobose cells with smooth surface as well as small budding cells was observed. Whereas, the treated Candida cells showed formation of batches (groups of yeast cells) with malformation of yeast cells and increased protrusions, abnormalities looking like notches were observed in cells treated with the Camel milk. The obtained data from scanning electron micrographs, E. coli bacterial cells (control) have uniform rod shape cells with smooth surface Whereas, the treated bacterial cells showed numerous destructive effects on the morphology of the cell morphology showing curved cells, compared with the untreated cells.
Raw Camel milk showed a high potentiality as antimicrobial agent against Candida albicans, the causal agent for candidiasis and E. coli, food poisoning bacteria.
5.13. Antioxidant activity of raw Camel milk:
The raw Camel milk revealed greenish-blue color which indicates the potentiality of Camel milk as antioxidant activity and the obtained activity increased by increasing the concentration of Camel milk Camel milk is high in antioxidants, which help prevent damage to your cells that can lead to serious diseases such as cancer, diabetes, and heart diseases. Antioxidants preserve foods by scavenging free radicals and retarding the oxidation. They were used as a natural food supplements.
5.14. Composition of fatty acid Camel milk:
The obtained data from gas chromatography mass spectrum in table revealed that the most common fatty acid recorded in raw Camel milk was Oleic Acid recording 35.14% of the total analytes and followed by 9-Hexadecenoic acid (12.85%), Oleic acid, eicosyl ester (8.08%), Hexadecanoic acid (5.35%) and 6-Octadecenoic acid (4.10%).
Composition of fatty acid Cow milk:
The obtained data from gas chromatography mass spectrum revealed that the most common fatty acid recorded in raw Cow milk was 1-Heptatriacotanol recording 16.58% of the total analytes and followed by 9-Hexadecenoic acid (4.27%),
Composition of fatty acid Buffalo milk:
The obtained data from gas chromatography mass spectrum revealed that the most common fatty acid recorded in raw Buffalomilk was 1-Heptatriacotanol recording 34.09% of the total analytes and followed by 9-Hexadecenoic acid (14.9%), Oleic acid, eicosyl ester (6.83and 6-Octadecenoic acid (1.13%).
