Abstract

The bacteriological examination of 40 swabs from the nasal discharges of 20 local and 20 imported camels revealed that, 37 of them gave 47 bacterial isolates, out of them (25.53%) were Gram-positive and the others were Gram negative. The most important identified bacterial spp. were Staphylococcus aureus (21.27%) Staphylococcus epidermidis (4.25%), Pseudomonase aeruginosa (4.25%) and E. coli (38.29%). The examination of 40 faecal swabs from 20 local and 20 imported diarrhetic camels revealed isolation of 50 bacterial isolates, all of them were Gram-negative. The most important isolates were, Salmonella spp. (4%), E.coli (42%), Citrobacter spp.(24%) and Klebseilla spp. (12%). The prevalence of antibodies to brucella was studied serologically among 126 camels (95 local and 3] imported) using 3 different serological methods, namely, RBPT, STAT and ELISA. For local camels, the prevalence rate was 9.47%, 5.26% and 9.47%, respectively In males the rate was higher than in females except by the STAT. Regarding imported camels, the prevalence rate was 6.67%, 9.67% and 25.80% using the same - tests respectively. Also, in males the rate was higher than in females except by ELISA.
