Clostridium perfringens type A was isolated from different organs and intestines from three to five weeks old camel calves which have died from heart muscle necrosis. No other bacterial pathogens were isolated. Virus isolation on two different cell lines including a fetal camel skin were also negative. Mice which were injected with bacteria free filtrates prepared from intestinal contents of ne...

This paper describes CARPET, a parallel programming language based on the cellular automata model. A CARPET implementation has been used for programming cellular algorithms in the CAMEL parallel environment. CAMEL is an environment designed to support the development of high performance applications in science and engineering. It offers the computing power of a highly parallel computer, hiding ...

Pneumonia is an emerging problem in dromedary camels, while no data concerning the diagnostic importance of acute phase proteins and oxidative stress markers in pneumonic camel calves are available. Twenty five spontaneously pneumonic camel calves were used in this study. In addition, 25 healthy camel calves were used as control group. Blood samples were collected from both groups for determina...

This research has performed for detection of Aspergillus species (A. fumigatus, A. flavus, A. niger and A. terreus) in aborted bovine, ovine, caprine and camel foetuses by real-time PCR in Iran. After modification of real-time PCR on abomasal contents, from the total number of 970 samples, 141 (14.53%) gave positive results for Aspergillus species. Of them, 62 (17.71%), 33 (14.04%), 27 (12.05%)...

BACKGROUND: Camel and sheep have high disperse and tolerance in tropical regions. But different results of harsh condition tolerance ability of them have been reported. OBJECTIVES: The objective of this study was to determine the heat stress tolerance in camel and sheep by evaluating changes in blood serum metabolites and to report and compare the serum biochemical profile of sheep and camel du...

the camel is known to be a multipurpose animal able to produce milk, meat, wool, hides and skins, to be used for riding, agricultural activities, packing and carting, racing and many cultural events. the present paper aims to propose an analysis of the situation of camel studies worldwide and of the main trends since 1961 up to 2014. the main field involved the camel sciences and some remarks o...

A major problem in camel productivity is the high mortality rate of camel calves in the first 3 months. The causes for mortality are mainly poor management practice and infectious diseases. The purpose of this research, carried out on a ranch in Kenya, was to determine the immunoglobulin G (IgG) concentration in camel colostrum as well as the extent of the calves' passive immunization by matern...

In the present case report, the comprehensive management of a bilateral mandibular fracture in a single-humped camel including pre-, peri- and post-operative cares is described. A one-year-old camel with the overhanging of the rostral part of the lower jaw which occurred seven days ago was presented. After clinical and radiographic examinations, a bilateral mandibular fracture at the caudal par...
