  • Title: Natural Dermatophilus congolensis infection in camels (Camelus dromedarius) from Kenya.
    Author: Gitao CG, Evans JO, Atkins DJ.
    Journal: J Comp Pathol; 1990 Oct; 103(3):307-13. PubMed ID: 2258468.
    Abstract:
    Natural Dermatophilus congolensis infection is found in many species of livestock and wild animals. It is, however, rarely described in camels and there are no details of bacterial isolation. In an investigation of both arid and semi-arid areas in Kenya, an outbreak of dermatophilosis was observed in camel calves being reared on a commercial farm in a semi-arid area. Histopathology and bacterial isolation were used to diagnose the diseases. The potential impact of the disease in camels is discussed.
