| description | Aim: To know the Haemato-Biochemical values of camels infested with Trypanosomiasis. Materials and Methods: A herd of 13 camels showing signs of inappetance, lethargy, going down in condition, urticarial swellings, oedema of pads and occasional shivering were examined. Blood samples were collected to screen for the trypanosomes and to record hemato-biochemical alterations. Treatment of both group I and group II was undertaken. Results: Nine camels were positive for Trypanosomes recording an incidence of 69.23%. A significant (P<0.01) increase in temperature and decrease in TEC was observed, while a significant (P<0.05) increase in TLC, neutrophils and eosinophils and significant (P<0.05) decrease in lymphocytes was noted in positive blood samples. Significant (P<0.05) decrease in blood glucose levels was recorded and one camel died due to hypoglycemic encephalopathy. Trypanosomiasis was treated successfully with Quinapyramine salts. [Vet.
