Swine fever: classical swine fever and African swine fever
Veterinary Clinics of North America: Food Animal Practice, 2002Because of the clinical and pathologic similarity to common endemic diseases, introduction of CSFV or ASFV strains of moderate to low virulence represents the greatest risk to North American swine herds. Producers, veterinarians, and diagnosticians should increase their awareness of these devastating diseases and request specific diagnostic testing ...

Publisher Summary African swine fever (ASF) is a tickborne and contagious disease of swine, caused by a large icosahedral cytoplasmic DNA virus, which has been tentatively classified as an Iridouirus. ASF was first described in a comprehensive report by Montgomery in 1921. In this report he described the outbreaks of the disease in Kenya between 1909

The causative agent of African swine fever (ASF) is an icosahedral virus 175 to 215 mv, in diameter. It is sensitive to lipid solvents and contains deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA). Thus far, it appears to have no close relatives among other viruses that infect mammals.

African swine fever (ASF) was first described in 1921 by Montgomery, who reported several disease outbreaks of domestic pigs in Kenya since 1910 with a mortality close to 100%. Montgomery recognized the viral nature of the disease, its likely transmission by wild swine which probably acted as virus carriers, and the lack of protection by passive ...

Immunology of African Swine Fever
Journal of the American Veterinary Medical Association, 1972SUMMARY In areas where African swine fever (asf) has become enzootic in domestic swine, subacute and chronic infections are no longer uncommon. Virus carriers may be increasingly involved in the maintenance and spread of the disease. A safe and satisfactory vaccine has not been developed.

African Swine Fever Diagnosis Update
2013African swine fever (ASF) is one of the most complex livestock diseases. The significant losses that it causes, coupled with the lack of a vaccine against ASF virus and the possible resemblance with other swine hemorrhagic diseases, make early detection and laboratory diagnosis essential for controlling and managing the disease.

Tropical Animal Health and Production, 1984
Detailed field surveys were undertaken in selected areas in the Central Region of Malawi starting in August 1981. The areas chosen following verbal enquiries and a questionnaire had recently suspected cases of pig disease. Each village in these selected areas was visited and each individual pig farmer asked how many pigs he owned, whether any had died ...
