Range Modeling and Surveillance of <i>Ornithodoros turicata</i> Ticks: Implications for Detecting African Swine Fever Virus in the United States. [PDF]

Ecol Evol
Ornithodoros turicata collected from a dry ice baited tick trap. ABSTRACT African Swine Fever virus (ASFv) is a re‐emerging global swine disease that, if introduced to the United States, would cause severe economic consequences. The widespread presence of feral hogs in addition to the presence of competent tick vectors, specifically Ornithodoros ...

Computational insights in CD58 binding to ASFV CD2v and in silico optimization of nanobody designs against the interface

Open Veterinary Journal
Background: African swine fever (ASF) continues to hamper pork production worldwide. In addition to vaccines, there is a need to develop curative therapeutics, such as highly-specific antibodies or nanobodies, against immunogenic proteins with important

Kinetics of Viral Genome Distribution in Swine Peripheral Lymphoid Organs Following Oronasal Infection with Attenuated African swine fever virus strains [PDF]

Viruses
African swine fever (ASF) continues to spread across the globe, causing a severe impact on the swine industry. Passive surveillance based on testing dead pigs is one of the most effective methods for early detection of ASF incursions.

Simultaneous ASFV and Haptoglobin Detection by Duplex qPCR Enables Pre-Viremia Diagnosis of African Swine Fever [PDF]

Viruses
African swine fever (ASF), caused by African swine fever virus (ASFV), has inflicted severe economic losses on China’s pig industry. Existing ASFV nucleic acid detection methods struggle to identify infected pigs in the pre-viremic stage, especially for ...

A triple protein-based ELISA for differential detection of ASFV antibodies [PDF]

Frontiers in Veterinary Science
African swine fever (ASF) caused by the ASF virus (ASFV) is a severe and highly contagious viral disease that poses a significant threat to the global pig industry. As no vaccines or effective drugs are available to aid prevention and control, early detection is crucial. The emergence of the low-virulence ASFV strain not expressing CD2v/MGFs (ASFVΔCD2v/

Structures and Functional Diversities of ASFV Proteins [PDF]

Viruses, 2021
African swine fever virus (ASFV), the causative pathogen of the recent ASF epidemic, is a highly contagious double-stranded DNA virus. Its genome is in the range of 170~193 kbp and encodes 68 structural proteins and over 100 non-structural proteins. Its high pathogenicity strains cause nearly 100% mortality in swine.

A review of some important viral diseases of wild boars [PDF]

Biotechnology in Animal Husbandry, 2021
Wild boars are one of the widest-ranging mammals worldwide and represent reservoirs for many important viruses. Disease outbreaks in domestic swine are often described as a consequence of contact with wild boars, and traditional rearing conditions are a ...

Expression of a recombinant ASFV P30 protein and production of monoclonal antibodies

Open Veterinary Journal, 2023
Background: African Swine Fever (ASF) is an infectious disease that affects domestic pig and wild boar populations. The African Swine Fever Virus (ASFV) has a genome characterized by a very complex DNA (170-193 kb) that encodes for more than 200 ...
