| Abstract | ||||
| Bacterial diseases in camels, as in other domestic animals, vary in importance and distribution. Staphylococcus aureus is responsible for over 80 percent of the suppurative diseases. They cause most pyogenic infections of the skin but may also invade and produce severe infections of the skin and any other parts of the body (Joklik et al., 1980), Pyogenic wounds and abscesses are perhaps the most important widely spread affection of camels (Shaban, 1979 and Ismail et al., 1985). In the present work, an investigation was made to determine the occurrence, nature and characteristics of Staphylococcus aureus of camels, so that some information could be gained for additional differential characters. In this study particular reference to the occurrence of staphylococcal protein A (SPA) vas included to establish a possible correlation with other criteria involved. | ||||
