Abstract

Thirty clinically healthy male Sudanese dromedary camels were used in this study to determine some normal constituents of their serum and cerebrospinal fluid (CSF). On physical examination the CSF was clear and its viscosity was comparable to that of water. The CSF normal concentration were as follows total protein (66.1mg/100ml), albumin (26.3±0.02mg/100ml), urea (17.93± 0.27), uric acid (2.17±0.04mg/ml), creatinine (1.38±0.02 mg/100ml), glucose (167.59±2mg/100ml), Na (121.67±0.49mmol/L), K (3.53±0.07mmol/L), Ca (5.65±0.02mmolL), Fe (48.30±0.06µg/100ml), Mg (2.28±0.06)mg/100ml), and the activities of the enzymes ALT(7.37±0.18U/L), AST(21.13±0.29U/L) and ALP (76.0±0.38U/L) and their corresponding values in serum were (7400± 144mg/100ml); (3763±150mg/100ml); (28.7±1.42mg/100ml); (3.05± 0.2mg/ml); (1.56±0.12mg/100ml); (162.16±18.8mg/100ml); (125.23± 3mmol/L); (3.74±0.16mmol/L); (8.12±0.18mg/100ml); (59.67± 4.08µg/100ml), (1.56±0.137mg/100ml); (11.67±1.75U/L); (34.73± 1.87U/L) and (84.50±1.50U/L) respectively. Serum had higher concentration of all the studied parameters than the CSF, except for the glucose level, which did not show any significant difference between the two fluids. The obtained values were discussed with other researchers reports in camels as well as with cerebrospinal fluid constituents in llamas and other domestic animals.
