The single-humped dromedary (Camelus dromedarius) is the most numerous and widespread of domestic camel species and is a significant source of meat, milk, wool, transportation and sport for millions of people. Dromedaries are particularly well adapted to hot, desert conditions and harbour a variety of biological and physiological characteristics with evolutionary, economic and medical importanc...

Middle East respiratory syndrome coronavirus (MERS-CoV) infections continue to be a serious emerging disease problem internationally with well over 1000 cases and a major outbreak outside of the Middle East region. While the hypothesis that dromedary camels are the likely major source of MERS-CoV infection in humans is gaining acceptance, conjecture continues over the original natural reservoir...

A clinical study to evaluate unilateral application of 10 holes dynamic compression plates (DCPs) for the treatment of bilateral fracture of the mandible insingle-humped camels. Six cases of typical mandibular fractures in the dromedary camel were treated by unilateral application of 3.5 mm 10holes DCP. Restrained of camels was performed with deep sedation using xylazine hydrochloride and ketam...

The present study had the aim of assessing the cytokine response and selected clinicopathological findings associated with brucellosis in camels (Camelus dromedarius). 340 dromedary camels were examined for brucellosis using agglutination and Complement Fixation tests (CFT). Twenty-five camels (7.35%) were positive by both tests; 14 (4.12%) for B. abortus and 11 (3.23%) for B. melitensis. IL-1β...

This study was conducted on dromedary camels suffering from disease suspected Johne’s disease. The clinical signs were chronic watery diarrhea, emaciation and decreased milk production. Inter-mandibular edema was noticed in two cases. Several investigations were performed, staining of intestinal smears with Ziehl–Neelsen stain, histopathology and PCR. Gross pathological examination revealed thi...

This work aimed to conduct a comparative analysis that helps identify the effect of developed technology on chemical composition drinking yogurts made from Australian and Kazakhstani dromedary camel milk. Camel milk taken Kazakhstan Australia has been processed into yogurt its amino, fatty acid, vitamin, mineral content was assayed. These identifications enabled us compare how our is suitable f...

this study investigated the effect of season (wet and dry) on milk composition of the dromedary camel (camelus dromedarius). milk samples representing the wet and dry seasons were analyzed for total solids (ts), fat (f), solids-non-fat (snf), ash, crude protein (cp), nitrogen soluble at ph 4.6 (sn), mineral content (mc) and casein fraction (cnf). camel milk had higher (p<0.05) fat content in th...
