Trypanosomiasis in camels is one of the most important diseases, widely distributed all over the world. A total of 176 blood samples were collected from camels (112 samples from camels in Cairo abattoir and 64 from animals imported from Sudan). Results revealed that out of 112 camels in Cairo abattoir, 5 (4.46%) were harbour T. evansi parasite between RBCs and 107 (95.54%) were negative.Out of 64 blood samples collected from imported camels,14 (21.88%) were infected and 50 (78.12%) were negative, have no parasite in their blood film. Hematological parameters included hemoglobin level (Hb gm/dl), total leucocytic count (TLC) and differential leucocytic count (DLC) were estimated. Serum biochemical analysis
included enzymatic liver functions (ALT, AST, ALP and GGT) were estimated also in samples taken from normal and infected camels. Blood samples from T. evansi infected camels showed marked decrease in hemoglobin concentration. The leucogram results showed significant increase in total leucocytic count (TLC) mainly Eosinophils, Neutrophils and
monocytes in infected group compared to non-infected group. Regarding the liver enzymes, the results showed increased levels of alanine aminotransferase (ALT), aspartate aminotransferase (AST), alkaline phosphatase (ALP) and GGT (P≤ 0.05) in infected camels compared to the control group. Creatinine and blood urea nitrogen were significantly increased in Trypanosoma infected camels compared to normal ones. From the present study it can be concluded that the above mentioned biochemical, parasitological and hematological parameters are mostly affected due to infection with
T. evansi and may constitute important indices for disease prognosis
