Abstract: 
Sixty amniotic fluid samples from 60 patients between 14-42 wk gestation were studied for antibacterial activity against S. aureus, B. abortus and antifungal activity against C. albicans. Both antibacterial and antifungal activity of the amniotic fluid were observed. When antimicrobial activity was correlated with gestational age, it was found to increase with the period of gestation. Maximum antimicrobial activity of the amniotic fluid was present in the samples obtained between 36-42 wk of gestation. All samples before 20 wk gestation showed week antibacterial activity against S. aureus, but comparatively strong reaction against C. albicans and B. albortus.
