Acute-phase proteins: As a diagnostic tool in pneumonic dromedary Camel

Determining the health of animals is important. So, acute-phase proteins consider as important markers of animal health. The acute-phase response is characterized by increased circulating levels of acute-phase proteins released by the liver. In addition, pneumonia is an emerging problem in dromed...

Interstitial pneumonia and fibrinous bronchopneumonia were revealed by histopathology.

The result revealed highly significant elevations in haptoglobin, C-reactive protein, and fibrinogen (1.00±0.06 g/l, 13.49±0.16mg/l, and 5.47±0.47g/l respectively) in case of interstitial pneumonia, and also the result revealed highly significant elevations in haptoglobin, C-reactive protein and fibrinogen (1.04±0.05g/l, 13.64±0.21mg/l, and5.25±0.33g/l respectively) in case of fibrinous bronchopneumonia than in controls. This study concluded that haptoglobin, C-reactive protein, and fibrinogen serve as diagnostic parameters for pneumonia in camels.
