Overview

Randomized trial investigates Eimeria infection rates in dromedaries, suggesting a need for better control methods.

Key Points

  • The aim was to investigate intestinal Eimeria infection in slaughtered dromedaries using molecular tools.
  • Analyzed 89 intestinal samples from two abattoirs in Southern Algeria.
  • Extracted DNA using a commercial kit and performed polymerase chain reaction (PCR) on 85 samples.
  • Assessed correlations between DNA concentrations and PCR results.
  • 12 out of 85 DNA extracts (14.1%) were PCR-positive for Eimeria.
  • Higher infection rates found in Sahraoui camels compared to Targui breed.
  • Older camels showed a higher infection rate than younger adults.
