ملخص

Camel trypanosomoses is considered a devastating disease with severe health consequences that can be caused by different hemoprotozoan parasites. Camel samples (388) from the five regions in Northern Oman were assessed using a thin blood film. In addition, 95 seropositive samples were analyzed using various primers of mechanically transmitted trypanosomes. Out of the 388 blood smears examined, 0.8% (CI 95%, 2/388) were found to be positive for Trypanosoma sp. using a microscope. The parasitologically positive cases were detected in samples from females. The overall molecular prevalences were as follows: TBR was 78/95, 77% (CI 73.1-89.2%); ITS was 30/95, 31.6% (CI 73.1-89.2%); and T. evansi type A (RoTat 1.2) was 8/95, 8.4% (CI 4.0-16.0%). There were two species of trypanosomes that were observed in the camels.
