Abstract
Ten mg per kg of diminazene aceturate (Berenil) was highly toxic to camels. The main signs of berenil poisoning were hyperaesthesia, salivation, intermittent convulsions, frequent urination and defaecation, itching and sweating. The damage to the liver and kidney was accompanied by increases in the activity of ASAT and in the concentration of ammonia and by decreases in the concentration of calcium and magnesium in serum. The activity of adenosine triphosphatase, 5-nucleotidase, succinic tetrazolium reductase and glucose-6-phosphatase was reduced in the hepatocytes and the cells of the renal tubules.
