We present the Cosmology and Astrophysics with MachinE Learning Simulations (CAMELS) Multifield Dataset, CMD, a collection of hundreds thousands 2D maps 3D grids containing many different properties cosmic gas, dark matter, stars from 2,000 distinct simulated universes at several times. The represent regions that span $\sim$100 million light years have been generated state-of-the-art hydrodynam...

Four camels ( Camelus dromedarius ) presented to the Veterinary Teaching Hospital at King Faisal University with maxillary masses. On radiographs, masses were multicystic and expanded bone. The tumors diagnosed by histopathologic examination as conventional ameloblastoma, two cases intraosseous squamous cell carcinoma, central odontogenic fibroma ossification. To authors’ knowledge, this is fir...

Analyzing the synovial fluid is one of the common methods to diagnose the articular problems to detect the stage and express the prognosis. Such gross, cytological, and biochemical analysis of synovial fluids can aid in the diagnosis of various joint diseases. Objectives: Normal values for synovial fluid in the camels have been described previously; however, there are no reports regarding conce...

The camel is the most valuable livestock species in arid and semi-arid regions in the Greater Horn of Africa. Streptococcus agalactiae and Staphylococcus aureus are important pathogens for a wide range of hosts including camels, cattle and humans. Streptococcus agalactiae has been reported to cause infections of the skin, the respiratory tract, the mammary gland and the vaginal tract in camels....

Young camels were inoculated intradermally with either camelpox or smallpox virus and the courses of infection, including serological response, were compared. Camelpox virus was highly infectious; generalized disease resulted which was transmitted naturally to contact animals. Smallpox virus produced only transient lesions at the inoculation site and a less marked serological response. Neverthe...

In order to initiate transformation into procyclic forms, bloodstream trypanosomes, were transferred to semi-defined medium at 27 degrees C. All stocks previously classified as Trypanosoma brucei rhodesiense, T.b. gambiense and T.b. brucei transformed into procyclic forms. None of the 31 characterized T. evansi stocks transformed into procyclic forms, but died between day 4 and day 6 in culture...

BACKGROUND A new betacoronavirus-Middle East respiratory syndrome coronavirus (MERS-CoV)-has been identified in patients with severe acute respiratory infection. Although related viruses infect bats, molecular clock analyses have been unable to identify direct ancestors of MERS-CoV. Anecdotal exposure histories suggest that patients had been in contact with dromedary camels or goats. We investi...

The aim of this contribution is to introduce three livestock species of Oman – camels, goats and horses. Even though cattle and sheep are nowadays very numerous in Oman, too, the three mentioned species were identified as being part of the country’s long tradition of nomadic and semi-nomadic livestock keeping and can thus be called the most important livestock species of Oman. FAO data from 200...
