A novel genotyping system based on site polymorphism on spike gene reveals the evolutionary pathway of porcine epidemic diarrhea virus

iMetaOmics, Volume 2, Issue 2, June 2025.
This study focuses on porcine epidemic diarrhea virus (PEDV), a highly virulent and rapidly evolving coronavirus threatening global swine production. We established a novel genotype system of PEDV targeting site‐specific polymorphisms in the spike (S) protein.

No Experimental Evidence of Co-Feeding Transmission of African Swine Fever Virus between Ornithodoros Soft Ticks

Pathogens, 2020
Ornithodoros soft ticks are the only known vector and reservoir of the African swine fever virus, a major lethal infectious disease of Suidae. The co-feeding event for virus transmission and maintenance among soft tick populations has been poorly ...

Pandemic Prevention Paradigms: Understanding Global Health Governance

Public Health Challenges, Volume 4, Issue 2, June 2025.
One Health is an emerging area of integrative studies and interventions aimed at preventing zoonotic diseases by addressing human, animal, and environmental interactions. A fundamental aspect of the concept is understanding how these interactions influence health outcomes among humans, animals, and ecosystems. Developed initially to respond to the need

Closing the air gap: the use of drones for studying wildlife ecophysiology

Biological Reviews, Volume 100, Issue 3, Page 1206-1228, June 2025.
ABSTRACT Techniques for non‐invasive sampling of ecophysiological data in wild animals have been developed in response to challenges associated with studying captive animals or using invasive methods. Of these, drones, also known as Unoccupied Aerial Vehicles (UAVs), and their associated sensors, have emerged as a promising tool in the ecophysiology ...

Structural insights into the DNA topoisomerase II of the African swine fever virus

Nature Communications
Type II topoisomerases are ubiquitous enzymes that play a pivotal role in modulating the topological configuration of double-stranded DNA. These topoisomerases are required for DNA metabolism and have been extensively studied in both prokaryotic and ...

Identification of a novel B-cell epitope of the African swine fever virus p34 protein and development of an indirect ELISA for the detection of serum antibodies

Frontiers in Microbiology
African swine fever (ASF) is a viral disease caused by the African swine fever virus that can be highly transmitted and lethal in domestic pigs. In the absence of a vaccine, effective diagnosis is critical for minimizing the virus’s spread.

Weighted prevalence and associated risk factors of hepatitis E virus antibodies among pregnant women in rural Burkina Faso using dried blood spot samples

Hepatology Research, Volume 55, Issue 6, Page 795-806, June 2025.
Abstract Aim To estimate the weighted prevalence of hepatitis E virus (HEV) antibodies and risk factors among pregnant women in Burkina Faso and to evaluate the efficiency of dried blood spots (DBS) in detecting HEV antibodies. Methods We first evaluated the efficiency of DBS detecting HEV antibodies by comparing 62 DBS with matched serum samples using

Purification and properties of African swine fever virus [PDF]

Journal of Virology, 1985
We describe a method for African swine fever (ASF) virus purification based on equilibrium centrifugation in Percoll density gradients of extracellular virions produced in infected VERO cells that yielded about 15 +/- 9% recovery of the starting infectious virus particles.

Modeling the ASF (African Swine Fever) spread till summer 2017 and risk assessment for Poland [PDF]

Katedra Matematyki Uniwersytetu Przyrodniczego we Wroclawiu,XLVII SEMINARIUM ZASTOSOWAN MATEMATYKI, Kobyla Gora 11 wrzesnia 2017, 2019
African Swine Fever (ASF) is viral infection which causes acute disease in domestic pigs and wild boar. Although the virus does not cause disease in humans, the impact it has on the economy, especially through trade and farming, is substantial. Recent rapid propagation of the (ASF) from East to West of Europe encouraged us to prepare risk assessment ...
