Ultrastructure of Camel (Camelus dromedarius) Spermatozoa

Anatomia, Histologia, Embryologia, 1986
AbstractSpermatozoa collected from the caudae epididymidis of six camels were examined by phase contrast, scanning electron and transmission electron microscopy. A comparison of the morphology of the camel spermatozoa with that of other domestic animals is presented.

Food deprivation and refeeding in the camel (Camelus dromedarius)

American Journal of Physiology-Regulatory, Integrative and Comparative Physiology, 1992
Camels thrive in arid and semiarid areas, although food and water frequently are scarce. However, the mechanisms enabling camels to withstand food deprivation are poorly understood. In this study four female camels were totally deprived of food for 4 days. Their body weight decreased by 6%.

Studies on the digestion of carbohydrates in the camel (Camelus dromedarius)

Tropical Animal Health and Production, 1977
Camels with cannulas in the small intestine were used to study the "digestive-absorptive" capacities of the small intestine. Solutions of different carbohydrates were infused through the cannulas and the responses in blood glucose levels were measured. Monosaccharides were readily absorbed from the camel small intestine.

Seroprevalence of camel brucellosis (Camelus dromedarius) in Somaliland

Tropical Animal Health and Production, 2009
The present study was delineated to investigate the prevalence and risk factors of camel brucellosis in Northern Somalia (Somaliland). The study was carried out at three main districts of camel-rearing regions of Somaliland (Awdal, Waqoyi Galbed and Togdheer) in the period from July to November, 2008.

A SURVEY OF CAMEL (CAMELUS DROMEDARIUS) DISEASES IN JORDAN

Journal of Zoo and Wildlife Medicine, 2000
Information on incidences of camel (Camelus dromedarius) diseases in Jordan is scarce. In this survey, 369 live and 156 slaughtered camels were examined in four Jordanian geographic regions and the proportion of diseased camels was calculated. Intestinal parasite ova were detected in 98% of camels; one or more species of external parasites were found ...

Hump biopsy on large camelids (Camelus dromedarius and Camelus bactrianus)

2013
Composed essentially of adipose tissue containing a high proportion of fat, the hump is a particularity of the camel. The collection of hump fat by biopsy is an easy way for monitoring the composition of fat storage or for the follow-up of xenobiotic lipophilic molecules. The method of biopsy is described.

Development of the Mesonephros in Camel (Camelus dromedarius)

Anatomia, Histologia, Embryologia, 2007
SummaryThe study of the development of the mesonephros in the camel (Camelus dromedarius) was carried out on 16 embryos ranging from 0.9 to 8.6 cm crown vertebral rump length (CVRL). At 0.9 cm CVRL, the mesonephros is represented by a narrow strip along the roof of the thoracolumbar part of the vertebral column.

Carotid body of Camelus dromedarius.

Acta anatomica, 1975
The carotid body of the camel is located between a mass of loose connective tissue at the point of separation of the internal carotid artery from the carotid trunk. A capsule-like connective tissue sheath sends strands in between the parenchyme of this organ and separates lobes and lobules, making it disseminated in type, as in man and in the horse ...

Camelus Dromedarius, Camelus Bactrianus, Hybrids And Their Wool Morphology

American Journal Of Agriculture And Horticulture Innovations
This article examines the wool morphology characteristics of Camelus bactrianus, Camelus dromedarius camels and their hybrids in relation to the pasture conditions of the Ustyurt Plateau and the camels' age at parturition. The study discusses and draws conclusions about the differences in wool morphology across pasture areas and in the dynamics of ...
