Virucidal activity of disinfectants against African swine fever virus
Introduction. The most effective strategy to control African swine fever is to implement a set of anti-epizootic measures aimed at preventing introduction and spread of the disease pathogen.

Phylogeographic Analysis of African Swine Fever Virus, Western Europe, 2018
In September 2018, African swine fever in wild boars was detected in Belgium. We used African swine fever–infected spleen samples to perform a phylogenetic analysis of the virus.

Autophagy impairment by African swine fever virus
African swine fever is a devastating disease of domestic swine and wild boar caused by a large double-stranded DNA virus that encodes for more than 150 open reading frames. There is no licensed vaccine for the disease and the most promising current candidates are modified live viruses that have been attenuated by deletion of virulence factors.

Emergence of African Swine Fever Virus, Northwestern Iran
In 2008, African swine fever was introduced into Georgia, after which it spread to neighboring Armenia, Azerbaijan, and the Russian Federation. That same year, PCR and sequence analysis identified African swine fever virus in samples from 3 dead female ...

Conserving genetic material and even increasing genetic diversity is critical. To conduct the conservation of wild boar germplasm resources, we have successfully obtained healthy cloned wild boars for the first time using interspecies somatic cell nuclear transfer and established transgene‐free iPSCs that can be used to conduct iterative rounds of gene

Simulation of Spread of African Swine Fever, Including the Effects of Residues from Dead Animals [PDF]
To study the spread of African swine fever (ASF) within a pig unit and the impact of unit size on ASF spread, a simulation model was created. In the model, an animal can be in one of the following stages: susceptible, latent, subclinical, clinical or ...
