Identification of a Continuously Stable and Commercially Available Cell Line for the Identification of Infectious African Swine Fever Virus in Clinical Samples

Viruses, 2020
African swine fever virus (ASFV) is causing outbreaks both in domestic pigs and wild boar in Europe and Asia. In 2018, the largest pig producing country, China, reported its first outbreak of African swine fever (ASF). Since then, the disease has quickly

Prediction of Influenza A virus infections in humans using an Artificial Neural Network learning approach [PDF]

39th Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society (EMBC), 1186--1189, 2017, IEEE, 2021
The Influenza type A virus can be considered as one of the most severe viruses that can infect multiple species with often fatal consequences to the hosts. The Haemagglutinin (HA) gene of the virus has the potential to be a target for antiviral drug development realised through accurate identification of its sub-types and possible the targeted hosts ...

Quantitative approach for the risk assessment of African swine fever and Classical swine fever introduction into the United States through legal imports of pigs and swine products. [PDF]

, 2017
The US livestock safety strongly depends on its capacity to prevent the introduction of Transboundary Animal Diseases (TADs). Therefore, accurate and updated information on the location and origin of those potential TADs risks is essential, so preventive

Identification of Wild Boar–Habitat Epidemiologic Cycle in African Swine Fever Epizootic

Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2018
The African swine fever epizootic in central and eastern European Union member states has a newly identified component involving virus transmission by wild boar and virus survival in the environment.

Transmission routes of African swine fever virus to domestic pigs: current knowledge and future research directions [PDF]

, 2016
African swine fever (ASF) is a major threat to the pig industry in Europe. Since 2007, ASF outbreaks have been ongoing in the Caucasus, Eastern Europe and the Baltic countries, causing severe economic losses for many pig farmers and pork producers.

Comparative Analysis of Whole-Genome Sequence of African Swine Fever Virus Belgium 2018/1

Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2019
We analyzed the whole-genome sequence of African swine fever virus Belgium 2018/1. The strain fits into the European genotype II (>99.98% identity). The high-coverage sequence revealed 15 differences compared with an improved African swine fever virus ...

African Swine Fever Virus trans-Prenyltransferase [PDF]

Journal of Biological Chemistry, 1997
The present study describes the characterization of an African swine fever virus gene homologous to prenyltransferases. The gene, designated B318L, is located within the EcoRI B fragment in the central region of the virus genome, and encodes a polypeptide with a predicted molecular weight of 35,904.

Spatial multi-criteria decision analysis to predict suitability for African swine fever endemicity in Africa [PDF]

, 2014
Background African swine fever (ASF) is endemic in several countries of Africa and may pose a risk to all pig producing areas on the continent. Official ASF reporting is often rare and there remains limited awareness of the continent-wide distribution ...

African swine fever virus transcription

Virus Research, 2013
African swine fever virus (ASFV), a large, enveloped, icosahedral dsDNA virus, is currently the only known DNA-containing arbovirus and the only recognized member of the family Asfarviridae. Its genome encodes more than 150 open reading frames that are densely distributed, separated by short intergenic regions.
