African swine fever virus organelle rearrangements
Virus Research, 2013 Like most viruses African swine fever virus (ASFV) subsumes the host cell apparatus in order to facilitate its replication. ASFV replication is a highly orchestrated process with a least four stages of transcription, immediate-early, early, intermediate and late.

Punctuated evolution of influenza virus neuraminidase (A/H1N1) under migration and vaccination pressures [PDF]
arXiv, 2012 Influenza virus contains two highly variable envelope glycoproteins, hemagglutinin (HA) and neuraminidase (NA). The structure and properties of HA, which is responsible for binding the virus to the cell that is being infected, change significantly when the virus is transmitted from avian or swine species to humans.

Are mouse and cat the missing link in the COVID-19 outbreaks in seafood markets? [PDF]
arXiv, 2020 Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) virus caused the novel coronavirus disease-2019 (COVID-19) affecting the whole world. Like SARS-CoV and MERS-CoV, SARS-CoV-2 are thought to originate in bats and then spread to humans through intermediate hosts.

Punctuated evolution of influenza virus hemagglutinin (A/H1N1) under opposing migration and vaccination pressures [PDF]
arXiv, 2012 Influenza virus contains two highly variable envelope glycoproteins, hemagglutinin (HA) and neuraminidase (NA). The structure and properties of HA, which is responsible for binding the virus to the cell that is being infected, change significantly when the virus is transmitted from avian or swine species to humans.

Titration of African Swine Fever (ASF) Virus
Journal of General Virology, 1976 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

Old vaccines, new usages, surprisingly effective in solving the century-old problem -Inactivated African Swine Fever Virus vaccine induces safe and efficient immune protection through mucosal immunity [PDF]
arXivBackground: African swine fever is among the most devastating viral diseases of pigs. Despite nearly a century of research, there is still no safe and effective vaccine available. The current situation is that either vaccines are safe but not effective, or they are effective but not safe.Findings: The ASF vaccine prepared using the inactivation method ...

African Trypanosomiasis Detection using Dempster-Shafer Theory [PDF]
International Journal of Emerging Trends in Computing and
Information Sciences, Vol. 3, No. 4, 2012, pp. 480 - 487, 2012 World Health Organization reports that African Trypanosomiasis affects mostly poor populations living in remote rural areas of Africa that can be fatal if properly not treated. This paper presents Dempster-Shafer Theory for the detection of African trypanosomiasis.
