Background. Bacteria and fungi constitute an important part of the genital tract microenvironment and participates in the mucosal homeostasis. While the genital tract microflora has been studied for several animal species, this is not the case for the one-humped camel (Camelus dromedarius). Objective. The aims of this survey were to investigate the prevalence of vaginal and clitoral fungi in one–humped camels (Camelus dromedarius) in different region of Iran. Materials & Methods. Samples were taken from dairy camel farms in the provinces of Khorasan Razavi, Semnan, Tehran, Qom and Isfahan located in Central and North-East Iran. Two hundred and twenty paired samples were taken from vaginal and clitoral mucosa of 110 camels and cultured on Sabouraud dextrose agar and on CHROMagarTM Candida followed by identification of cultured fungi. Data were analyzed using Genmod procedure. Results. Six different isolates were recovered in this study. Fungi were cultured and isolated from 31% of the camels. Cladosporium spp. and Aspergillus flavus were the most isolated prevalent. The most frequently recovered species samples was Aspergillus. The presence of fungi was evaluated in different ages of the camels, but there was no correlation (P>0.05). Conclusion. It is concluded that fungal contamination of the camel external organs of reproductive system is very low in comparison with other domestic animals. It is likely due to the intrinsic immunity of one humped camel (Camelus dromedarius). | ||
