The study was conducted in Mieso and Bordede districts, West Hararghe Zone of Oromiya National Regional State with the objectives assessing major constraints camel production, reproductive performances, physicochemical quality milk areas. A total 120 households (camel owners) were selected purposively for interview (i.e 20 from each kebeles). Feed shortage, conflict over scarcity natural resour...

BACKGROUND Toxoplasmosis is a major public health concern in many countries of the world. A cross-sectional and follow up experimental study designs were used for seroepidemiological and bioassay studies, respectively from November 2012 to April 2013. The objectives were to estimate the seroprevalence of T. gondii infection, to assess risk factors and to isolate the parasite from camels in the ...

the aim of the present study was to investigate the physico-chemical quality of raw milk of one-humped camel coming from khur and biabanak known as a camel-rearing area located in isfahan province of iran. 500 milliliters of raw milk from thirty individual one-humped camels were randomly collected and subjected for proximate analyses indicating the amounts of total solid, protein, fat, lactose,...

κ-casein is a glycosilated protein belonging to a family of phosphoproteins (αs1,β, αs2,κ) that represents the major protein component in mammalian milk. κ-casein plays an essential role in the case of micelle stabilization, determining the size and the specific biological function. In the present study, we report the characterization of the partial sequence of κ-casein promoter region in the I...

Clinical and subclinical mastitis (SCM), mostly related to intramammary infection (IMI), is prevalent in pastoralist camel herds. An IMI has implications for public animal health as well household economy. As bacterial culturing expensive, time consuming impractical a setting, other early detection methods SCM camels need be investigated. Somatic cell count (SCC) the standard detecting cattle. ...

Purpose: This study was conducted to determine the production system effect on camel milk composition and macro-elements content in Sudan.
 Methodology: Sample purchased from markets (Albutana- Tumbool, Kordfan-Elobied, Khartoum-Alsalam market) 6 replicates.
 Findings: There were no difference moisture, protein % among different area, other hand there significantly fat ash with highes...

Nearly 4 years after the first report of the emergence of Middle-East respiratory syndrome Coronavirus (MERS-CoV) and nearly 1800 human cases later, the ecology of MERS-CoV, its epidemiology, and more than risk factors of MERS-CoV transmission between camels are poorly understood. Knowledge about the pathways and mechanisms of transmission from animals to humans is limited; as of yet, transmiss...
