Insights into African swine fever virus immunoevasion strategies
African swine fever (ASF) is an acute and highly contagious disease that causes severe economic losses to the swine industry. ASF is caused by infection of African swine fever virus (ASFV) in domestic pigs, leading to almost 100% mortality.

SCIENTIFIC RISK ASSESSMENT OF AFRICAN SWINE FEVER (ASF)
The experts of RACFCH assessed the risk of ASF virus occurrence and spread for the South Central region of the country on the basis of the assessment of all risk indicators (risk factors) contributing to the conservation of the virus in the wild nature, presence in domestic pigs, presence in other industrial, family and personal farms, incl.

Titration of African Swine Fever (ASF) Virus
A haemadsorption microtest for African swine fever (ASF) virus is described. This assay is as sensitive and its response is faster than the conventional assay which uses buffy coat cultures in Leighton tubes. The method can also process a larger number of samples by using smaller amounts of swine blood and laboratory space. A plaque assay for ASF virus

Isolation and Properties of the DNA of African Swine Fever (ASF) Virus
African swine fever (ASF) virus was grown either in swine macrophages or in VERO cells and purified free of cell DNA. Virus DNA was isolated from virions as a molecule with a sedimentation coefficient of 60S and a contour of 58 +/- 3 mum. .these two values give a mol. wt.
