Mohamed}, keywords = {Camel,iron,transferring,saturation}, abstract = {The present study was designed to establish reference values for blood concentrations of iron (Fe), Total Iron Binding Capacity (TIBC) and transferring saturation % in camels (Camelus dromedarius). A total of 375 camels of different age groups, sexes were used in this trial. The study indicated that sex did not have a discernable effect on Fe, TIBC and saturation %. Age was a significant variable for Fe and TIBC, but saturation did not differed. Reference ranges for Fe serum concentration, TIBC, and transferring saturation were 166?24.8 ?g dL 1, 361?30.5 and 56.3%, respectively.} }
