The methanolic extract of the egg mass from C. catla was studied for the antibacterial activity against ten human pathogenic bacteria. The antibacterial activity of the methanolic extract from the egg mass of C. catla displayed zone of inhibition 19, 14, 17, 13, 14, 18, 10 and 12 mm against S. aureus, K. pneumoniae, S. typhi, K. oxytoca, S. paratyphi, E. coli, P. mirabilis and S. pyogenes at the highest concentration of 100 µg/ml. Further, the methanolic extract detected the MIC values of 80 µg/ml against E. coli and the S. typhi and E. coli were 100 µg/ml concentration. MBC value of the methanolic extract was 80 µg/ml against E. coli and the S. typhi and E. coli were 100 µg/ml concentration. Whereas the K. pneumonia, K. oxytoca, S. paratyphi, P. mirabilis and S. pyogenes were slightly arrested at 100 µg/ml. The methanolic extract from the egg mass of C. catla showed the anticancer activity of 8.02%- 30.41% at 50 - 250 µg/ml concentrations. Hence, from the above antibacterial and anticancer activity of the methanolic extract from the egg mass of C. catla, recommend it as a good biological agent in future pharmacological industry....
