Abstract

Nine males camels were divided into 3 groups and inoculated intradermally with different doses of BCG vaccine. Enhancement of cell-mediated immunity was detected as determined by the in vivo skin test and the in vitro lymphocyte proliferation assays. The results obtained in this investigation indicated that camels inoculted with 1.5 X 10' attenuated living tubercle bacilus
ving tubercle bacilus of Calmette and Guerin gave the greater skin reaction as well as responsivness of lyphocytes.
