Blood from 115 camels in Kuwait was examined for blood parasites. Two camels of a local herd (1.7%) were found to be infected with Trypanosoma (Trypanozoon) evansi and three camels (2.6%) with microfilarial nematodes. The Trypanosoma stocks isolated from these two camels were screened for isoenzyme patterns of 10 enzymes using thin-layer starch-gel electrophoresis. The results revealed that these two stocks were identical to camel stocks of T. evansi from certain countries in Africa, as well as to two stocks isolated from dogs in Kuwait. This is the first record of Trypanosoma (Trypanozoon) evansi isolates and microfilariae from camels in Kuwait.
对科威特115头骆驼的血液进行了血液寄生虫检测。在当地一群骆驼中，发现2头骆驼（1.7%）感染了伊氏锥虫（锥虫属），3头骆驼（2.6%）感染了微丝蚴线虫。使用薄层淀粉凝胶电泳对从这2头骆驼分离出的伊氏锥虫株进行了10种酶的同工酶谱筛选。结果显示，这两个虫株与来自非洲某些国家的骆驼伊氏锥虫株相同，也与从科威特狗身上分离出的两个虫株相同。这是科威特骆驼中伊氏锥虫（锥虫属）分离株和微丝蚴的首次记录。
