Prevalence of toxoplasmosis in Saudi Arabian camels (Camelus dromedarius)
1988
Abstract Serum samples from 227 Saudi Arabian camels were examined for Toxoplasmagondii antibodies by the indirect haemagglutination test, using a microtitre technique. Agglutinations (〉 2+) occurring at 1:64 dilution were considered postive. A total of 36 (16%) camels were serologically positive for toxoplasmosis, giving titres ranging between 1:64 and 1:8192. The prevalence was much higher in female compared to male camels and in adults compared to young individuals
