Selected ruminal and blood constituents were investigated in a group of 81 dromedary camels affected by various diseases including simple indigestion (SI, n=38), ruminal acidosis (RA, n=19), frothy bloat (FB, n=3), trypanosomiasis (TR, n=11), caseous lymphadenitis (CL, n=6), contagious skin necrosis (CSN, n=4) and in healthy camels (NC, n=38). Body temperature was taken, pulse and respiratory rate were measured, and mucous membranes and ruminal motility were examined in each animal. Samples of ruminal fluid were examined for physical characteristics (pH, colour, consistency), protozoan activity and biochemical constituents including ammonia nitrogen, total VFA, total proteins, calcium, inorganic phosphorus, sodium blood samples were tested for total erythrocyte count, haemoglobin concentration, packed cell volume, mean cellular volumemean cell haemoglobin, mean cell haemoglobin concentration, and total and differential leukocyte counts. The results should be considered in diagnosis and treatment of camel deseases.
