Camel myoglobin

Myoglobin expression: early induction and subsequent modulation of myoglobin and myoglobin mRNA during myogenesis.

We showed that myoglobin gene transcription and the appearance of myoglobin occur very early in myogenesis, in both humans and mice. In contrast to the contractile protein genes, there is a subsequent increase of 50- to 100-fold in myoglobin mRNA and protein levels during later muscle development. Myoglobin and myoglobin mRNA are present at elevated levels in fetal heart and are also detectable...

Camel Diseases in Jordan

Data relating to camel diseases in Jordan is scarce, from both a clinical and pathological point of view. Thus, an epidemiological study was designed to study camel diseases based on systematic methods. A total of 369 living and 156 slaughtered camels of different sex, age and breeds in four different areas of Jordan were used. These areas include Al-Badia, Amman, Al-Ramtha and Jordan Valley. A...

CAMEL: concept annotated image libraries

The problem of content-based image searching has received considerable attention in the last few years. Thousands of images are now available on the internet, and many important applications require searching of images in domains such as E-commerce, medical imaging, weather prediction, satellite imagery, and so on. Yet, content-based image querying is still largely unestablished as a mainstream...

An introduction to the camel

Present distribution and economic potential According to FAO statistics there are about 19 million camels in the world, of which 15 million are found in Africa and 4 million in Asia. Of this estimated world population, 17 million are believed to be one-humped dromedary camels (Camelus dromedarius) and 2 millions two-humped (Camelus bactrianus). Approximately 11 million dromedaries, representing...
