The cases of infection of the mastitis are the result of the introduction of germs through the opening of the nipple and some cases, a few, the result of the injury of camels of tuberculosis and brucellosis, where mastitis causes bacteria coming through the blood. The most important bacteria that have been isolated from cases of mastitis in camels, whether milk or skin that surrounds the supplication or the hands of the milking is: (WHO, 2000)
· Staphylococcusureus, especially Staphylococcus aureus, has been shown to cause significant damage to the tissues of the urethra due to its secretion of many toxins, especially the type of alpha that causes the infection of the mastectomy and then damaged.
· Streptococcus and have several species.
· E. coli bacillus (E.coli).
· Pasteurellass bacteria.

- If the milk appears reddish white, this indicates the presence of red corpuscles, natural or broken, and this occurs when the infection Staphylococcus aurous.
- If the milk appears in a watery yellow color, this may be evidenced by the infection of bacteria similar to coliforms.
emerging disease is that diseases which appear anew as example; zika, and Avian diseases but
the reemerging disease is the disease which we know and control it in the past and now this disease is appear back as T.B .
Emerging are new communicable diseases which are coming where as re emerging are the ones which we almost eliminated in the past.
