Sixty samples of raw cow milk were collected from four different locations in Madurai for their microbiological and chemical compositions analysis. The average levels of major chemical components were: fat (6.14%), crude protein (3.77%), lactose (4.25%), total solids (18.10%) and ash (0.80%). Microbiological enumeration revealed for the counts of total mesophilic aerobic bacteria, 5.84 log cfu/ml; bacterial endospores, 2.37 log cfu/ml; lactic acid bacteria, 4.46 log cfu/ml; coliforms, 2.76 log cfu/ml; Escherichia coli, 1.63 log cfu/ml and Staphylococcus aureus, 1.92 log cfu/ml. Listeria spp. were below detection level in all of the samples. The microbiological quality of raw cow milk was judged marginal and indicates the need for improved hygienic standards.Keywords

The antibacterial and antifungal activities of chloroform, ethanol, acetone and aqueous extracts of Pongamia glabra and Phyllanthus niruri leaves were screened. In antibacterial activity assay followed by standard disc diffusion method against Escherichia coli, Staphylococcus aureus, Micrococcus luteus and Enterobacter aerogens. Among the all the treatments, chloroform extract of P. glabra showed the highest activity against bacterial and fungal strains. Chloroform extract of P. glabra showed the presence of phalobatannin, saponin, flavanoids, terpenoids, cardiac glycosides, alkaloids, steroids and aminoacids. P. niruri leaf extract showed the presence of tannin, phlobatannin, flavanoids, terpenoids, cardiac glycosides, steroids and aminoacids.Keywords
