Serum biochemical values of Sudanese stabled and grazing camels (Camelus dromedaius) [electronic resource].

Includes references.

In this study, the concentrations of some blood biochemical constituents were determined in a group of 12 stabled and 12 nllturnl1y grazing camels, All animals have been subjected to careful clinical and laboratory examinations to ensure their healthy status, A significant variation was observed in serum glucose (P<0,01) concentration and in serum uric acid concentration (P<0.05), between the blood of the two groups, The stabled animals obtained the highest glucose concentration while the grazing animals obtained higher uric acid value than the stabled group. No significant variation was observed in the mean values of total protein, albumin, urea, uric acid, total bilirubin, creatinine, ALT. AST or ALP, The values obtained in this study were compared with the findings reported by other workers in camels.
