About
M.M. Al-Eknah has made foundational contributions to the reproductive physiology and immunology of the dromedary camel, a species of critical economic importance in arid agricultural systems. Their key research areas include camel reproductive efficiency, pregnancy-associated immunological changes, and glycobiology. Al-Eknah’s most cited work, “Pregnancy-Associated Changes of IgG and Serum N-Glycosylation in Camel,” reveals how serum and IgG N-glycosylation patterns shift during gestation, offering a novel diagnostic tool to monitor pregnancy and health in these animals—a breakthrough given the camel’s notoriously low reproductive efficiency. With 11 citations, this study highlights the practical application of molecular markers in livestock management. Al-Eknah’s research bridges fundamental immunology and applied veterinary science, addressing a pressing need for improved reproductive outcomes in camel herds. Their work stands as a vital resource for researchers and veterinarians seeking to enhance fertility and disease surveillance in dromedaries, underscoring the potential of glycosylation analysis as a non-invasive, cost-effective diagnostic approach. Through these contributions, Al-Eknah has advanced both the scientific understanding and practical management of this resilient yet understudied species.
