Abstract
In this study, skin biopsies of two outbreaks of camel pox infection in camels were collected from Belbeis, Sharkeya governorate, Egypt and Al Ain city, Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates (UAE) for histopathological diagnosis and polymerase chain reaction (PCR) CHARacterization and identification. Camel pox virus (CPV) reported as a specific viral disease of camel. CPV is highly contagious mainly in calf camels and usually mild in intensity.The mild form, CHARacterized by papular, pustules on the lips, nostrils, cheeks and different parts of skin. CPV usually associated by lymphadenopathy and nasal discharge . This study declared numerous outbreaks of mild pathogenicity for camel pox virus and the causative agent was identified and confirmed as camel pox virus (CPV) by PCR
