    abstract = {The viability, Purity and count of monocytes isolated from peripheral blood of camels were assessed after the isolation of these cells on 9, 10 and 12% concentrations of Ficoll/Hypaque. The results obtained showed that 97% viable cells were obtained using the three concentrations of the Ficoll/Hypaque. For purity, 12% Ficoll concentration separated cells were contaminated with others blood cells, while 9 and 10% separated cells were pure. When cells count was applied for the pure isolated cells, the cells isolated on 10% Ficoll/Hypaque concentration showed the best highest   count compared to 9% with p = 0.003. Cells isolated using 10% Ficoll/Hypaque well proliferated when stimulated with Phytohaemaggglutnin (PHA) mitogen.}
