A serological study was performed on 300 camels sera collected from Assiut and New Valley Governorates to estimate the incidence of brucella infection among camels. All samples were examined serologicaly by Buffered acidified plate antigen test (BAP A T) and Rose Bengal plate test (RBPT) and positive reactors were confirmed by tube agglutination test (TAT) and Rivanol tests (R.T.). Of the 300 camel sera tested, 7 positive reactors (2.33) were detected, 2 males (0.66%) and 5 females (1.66%). The incidence in Assiut was 3.04% while no positive reactors were detected in the New Valley.
