Epidemiology of African Swine Fever Virus
1987African swine fever virus (ASFV), which prevails in Eastern and Southern Africa as a mild disease-causing agent in warthogs, found a most sensitive host in the domesticated pig. In the latter, ASFV affects the reticuloendothelial cells and causes the death of the host without a response from the immune system.

African swine fever virus: on the move and dangerous
Veterinary Record, 2013AS the name suggests, African swine fever (ASF) has for many years been thought of as ‘one of those obscure diseases affecting pigs a long way off in Africa’ which do not pose a significant risk to pig populations in the UK and Europe. This was indeed the case up until the summer of 2007, when African swine fever virus (ASFV) appeared for the first ...

African Swine Fever Virus in Nature
1987Thus far, natural infections with ASFV have been found only in porcine species and ticks of the genus Ornithodoros. In Africa, the virus has been recovered many times from warthogs (Phacochoerus aethiopicus) and bush pigs (Potamochoerus porcus), and they have also been infected experimentally (1, 2, 3).

Polypeptides and structure of African swine fever virus
Virus Research, 1985Extracellular and intracellular African swine fever virus (ASFV) was purified using a two-phase aqueous polymer system. Both the structure of the virus and the polypeptides present during the purification procedure were studied. After PEG/dextran phase separation and centrifugation through 20% (w/v) Ficoll, 79% of input infectivity was recovered as ...
