Abstract
One hundred twenty camels were blood-sampled and used to evaluate serological screening for Neospora caninum and Toxoplasma gondii infection by indirect fluorescent antibody test (IFAT) in Mashhad, Iran, during years 2004-2005. Of the 120 camels, antibodies to N. caninum were found in three in titers of 1:20 and in four in titers of 1:40 using whole N. caninum tachyzoites as IFAT slide (VMRD Inc., Pullman, WA 99163, USA). Antibodies to T. gondii were found in three camels in titers 1:20 and in two camels in titers 1:40 using whole T. gondii tachyzoites as IFAT slide (BIOGENE, Iran).
