| Abstract | ||
| Closed abscesses are perhabs the most important affections of one humped camels in Egypt. The most common site of these abscesses are on the thoracic regions, shoulders, abdomen and the hind quarters also being affected fairly frequently (Rathore and Lodha, 1973). The severity of the abscesses depends on the position in which it occur and the contamina- tion with differ forms of micro-organisms (Shaton'Ko, 1955; Lam et al., 1963). Failure to treat such pyoge- nic abscesses properly and promptly may lead to many complications. Such abscesses may becomes chronic, (cading to poor condition of the affected camels Roberts, 1968; Jubb and Kennedy, 1970). some investigators recorded that certain different facultative anaerobic bacterial species were commonly recovered from camels affected with abscesses (Hagen And Fossum, 1962; Rathors and Lodha, 19733 Morcos and Amin, 1974; Finely, 1975, Tannock and Dobbinson ,1984 And Ismail et al., 1985) but shows various consider- Able differences in the number and the incidence of facultative anaerobic isolates. | ||
