Multiplex PCR for rapid diagnosis and differentiation of pox and pox-like diseases in dromedary Camels

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Pox and pox-like diseases of camels are a group of exanthematous skin conditions that have become increasingly important economically. Three distinct viruses may cause them: camelpox virus (CMLV), camel parapox virus (CPPV) and camelus dromedary papilloma virus (CdPV).
