Abstract: 
The present study aimed to determine the amounts of two CLA isomers, c9t11-CLA and t10c12-CLA, in products from Camelus dromedarius and, to compare their CLA levels with those reported in the literature for true ruminants. Weight percentages of c9t11-CLA and t10c12-CLA in different camel products were in the range between 0.37 to 0.80 and 0.04 to 0.14% of total fatty acid methyl esters, respectively, with the highest values found in liver, milk and meat, and the lowest found in perirenal and hump adipose tissue. Comparison of camel data with literature data for true ruminants indicates that no major differences exist between products from C. dromedarius and true ruminants with respect to their CLA content.
