Studies on the Relationship Between Haemoglobin Types of Adult Dromedary Camels and the Concentrations of Haemoglobin, Copper, Ceruloplasmin and Iron

The relationship between haemoglobin types of adult dromedary camels and the concentrations of haemoglobin, copper, ceruloplasmin and iron were studied. Blood samples were taken from the jugular vein of 100 clinically healthy Iranian dromedary camels according to their age (1–2, 2–4, 4–6 and >6 years) and sex. Haemoglobin electrophoresis showed two haemoglobin types: HbA (95.2%) and HbA2 (4.8%). Age and sex had no significant effect on haemoglobin types nor on the concentrations of haemoglobin, copper, ceruloplasmin and iron. There was no correlation between the concentrations of haemoglobin, copper, iron, ceruloplasmin, HbA and HbA2. http://www.deepdyve.com/assets/images/DeepDyve-Logo-lg.png Comparative Clinical Pathology Springer Journals

Abstract

The relationship between haemoglobin types of adult dromedary camels and the concentrations of haemoglobin, copper, ceruloplasmin and iron were studied. Blood samples were taken from the jugular vein of 100 clinically healthy Iranian dromedary camels according to their age (1–2, 2–4, 4–6 and >6 years) and sex. Haemoglobin electrophoresis showed two haemoglobin types: HbA (95.2%) and HbA2 (4.8%). Age and sex had no significant effect on haemoglobin types nor on the concentrations of haemoglobin, copper, ceruloplasmin and iron. There was no correlation between the concentrations of haemoglobin, copper, iron, ceruloplasmin, HbA and HbA2.
