Sharjah: A group of Arab researchers has made a scientific breakthrough by developing a medical formula for treating cancer with an extract from the camel's immune system, Dr Abdullah A. Al Najjar, President of Arab Science and Technology Foundation, has announced.
Al Najjar told reporters on Tuesday that the team of researchers had commenced its project in 2008 and reached wonderful results at the international level.
"The medicine, a combination of camel's milk and urine, has been tested on experimental mice and will be tested on human beings," he said.
Al Najjar added that experiments had started at Sharjah University and completed at the cancer institute in Baghdad.
"The new medicine was registered with the UK Patents Office last February," he said.
Sabah Jasem, head of the team at the Arab Biotechnology Company (ABC), said the team found that the camel's immune system was rejuvenating itself every time they took samples of milk and urine, making it one of the strongest immune systems.
