Kinetics of polychlorinated biphenyls in Bactrian camels [PDF]
The study aimed to determine the accumulation and depuration of polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) in Bactrian camels. Four lactating, two-humped camels (Camelus bactrianus) received 0.8 mg PCBs (1.3 μg/kg body weight) daily for 56 days. Then, the depuration of the animals was monitored for the next 4 months.

Hormone measurements and histomorphological observations in male Bactrian camels
Abstract The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of Bactrian camel age on the hypothalamic-pituitary-gonadal (HPG) axis hormone and to determine the morphological changes of the testis. The Bactrian camels were divided into two groups based on their ages, including three years old (puberty) and six years old (adult).

Genome sequences of wild and domestic bactrian camels [PDF]
Bactrian camels serve as an important means of transportation in the cold desert regions of China and Mongolia. Here we present a 2.01 Gb draft genome sequence from both a wild and a domestic bactrian camel. We estimate the camel genome to be 2.38 Gb, containing 20,821 protein-coding genes.

Semen-induced ovulation in the bactrian camel (Camelus bactrianus) [PDF]
Bactrian camels (63 female female, 8 male male) were used in the breeding season to determine the factors that will induce ovulation. After insemination of semen samples into the vagina, the ovaries were checked for ovulation by rectal palpation. The results indicated that ovulation was induced by the seminal plasma, but not by the spermatozoa, and the

Middle East Respiratory Syndrome-Coronavirus Seropositive Bactrian Camels, Mongolia
Middle East respiratory syndrome coronavirus (MERS-CoV) is a zoonotic disease that was first identified in humans in 2012 in Saudi Arabia. MERS-CoV causes acute and severe respiratory disease in humans. The mortality rate of MERS in humans is ∼35% and >800 deaths have been reported globally as of August 2020.
