Milk protein is beneficial for the health of infants and mainly derived from bovine, sheep, goat or camel milk. High Fischer ratio peptides usually comprise two to nine amino acid residues. The computed as a molar between branched-chain acids (BCAAs) over aromatic (AAAs) with various claimed health-promoting functions. In this Lilliput review, classification nutritional functions milk proteins ...

CONFLICT OF INTEREST none declared. INTRODUCTION This study was carried out to evaluate PCR-based method for detection of DNA in goat milk. It utilized primers targeting the mitochondrial cytochrome -b (mtcyt-b) gene, which was used as a target DNA for PCR amplification. METHODS For the specific identification of goat mtcyt-b gene, pair of primers (GSL1, GSR2), were used, which produced a 4...

Nosocomial infections due to methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) are a major public health problem worldwide. The main aim of this study was evaluate the inhibitory potential lactic acid bacteria (LAB) against MRSA. Six strains LAB isolated from camel milk, were identified by phenotypic method, which revealed their belonging species “Lc.lactis […]

A total of 120 quarter milk samples from 30 clinically healthy dromedary camel from Al-Jouf, Saudi Arabia were cultured to detect subclinical udder infection. The milk samples were screened by somatic cell count (SCC) and California mastitis test (CMT). Gram-positive cocci were the dominant recovered udder pathogen. The mean value of SCC was 125,000 cells/ mm. Infected quarter had generally hig...

In ruminants, circulating vitamin D levels may be influenced by photoperiod, nutrition, physiological stage, ambient temperature, attitude and season, whereas, in meat, vitamin D content may be impacted by vitamin D status of animal, ageing and cooking. The information on nutritional value of camel milk and meat is largely available, but, there are very few reports evaluating the vitamin D leve...

Camel is a universal agricultural animal with many versatile features that are beneficial to humans. Over the centuries, its place in socio-economic sphere has changed line lifestyle changes. Since beginning of twentieth century, due mechanization industries, role camels economic and transport sectors republic began decline. The development civilization weakened importance as productive desert ...

Camel is an economically important farm animal used for meat, milk and hair production in the Middle-East and North Africa [1]. Mycoplasmas are highly contagious organism capable of auto-replication and difficult to culture and slow growing [2,3]. Camel joints are infected by variety of infectious diseases that may affect their racing performance. Mycoplasma spp. are considered the common cause...
