Some immuno-suppressive trends : effects of endotoxin on camels (Camelus dromedarius)‎

الملخص EN

Intravenous administration of a bolus of 0.05 μg/kg body weight endotoxin lipopolysaccharide (LPS) to camels has resulted in leukopenia, lymphopenia, neutropenia, proteinaemia, albunaemia , globulinaemia and reduced lysozomal enzyme activity.

It is suggested that endotoxin at the dose of 0.05μg/kg body weight may produce immunosuppressive effects in camels.
