Heal Force African Swine Fever (ASF) Detection Solution
What is ASF?
African Swine fever (ASF) is an acute, hemorrhagic, and severe infectious disease caused by African Swine fever virus (ASFV) that infects domestic pigs and various wild boars (African wild boar, European wild boar, etc.).
The World Organisation for Animal Health (OIE) lists it as a statutory report animal disease characterized by a short onset, with a maximum acute and acute infection mortality rate of 100%, clinical manifestations of fever (up to 40 to 42 ° C), rapid heartbeat, and breathing. Difficulties, partial cough, serous or mucous purulent secretions in the eyes and nose, skin blemishes, lymph nodes, kidneys, gastrointestinal mucosa bleeding, clinical symptoms of African swine fever are similar to those of swine fever, can only rely on laboratory monitoring to confirm the diagnosis .
ASFV can enter the pig through the oral and upper respiratory system, infection in the nasopharynx or tonsils, and the virus spreads rapidly to the mandibular lymph nodes, spreading through the lymph and blood. When the virulent infection occurs, the cells change rapidly, and the cells are dead before the obvious stimulatory response. In attenuated infections, the stimulatory response is easily observed, the nucleus becomes larger, and mitosis generally occurs. The incidence is usually between 40% and 85%, and the mortality varies depending on the strain of the infection. The mortality of highly pathogenic strains can be as high as 90-100%; the mortality of moderately pathogenic strains in adult animals is between 20% and 40%, and the mortality rate in young animals is between 70% and 80%. The mortality of low pathogenic strains is between 10% and 30%.
The incubation period of natural infection is 5 to 9 days, which is often shorter. The clinical infection is 2 to 5 days. The body temperature rises to 41 °C on the onset of illness, which lasts for about four days. Until the forty-eight hours before death, the body temperature begins to decline. The clinical symptoms are not shown until the body temperature drops, so the symptoms are different when the body temperature of the piglets rises. During the first three to four days of fever, the appetite of the pigs is extremely fragile. The pigs are lying on the corners and forced to catch up. When it moves, it shows extremely weak, especially hind limbs, pulse fast, cough, breathing about one-third faster, showing difficulty breathing, serous or mucopurulent conjunctivitis, some strains will cause bloody sputum Vomiting, blood changes like swine fever, from three to five cases, showing a 50% reduction in white blood cell count, lymphocytes are also reduced, white blood cell anemia occurs when the body temperature rises, and the number of white blood cells drops on the fourth day It does not fall until 40%, and the increase in the number of immature neutral balls can also be observed. It usually dies on the seventh day after fever, or the symptoms die only one or two days.
ASF diagnosis method
According to the "African Hog Virus Detection Operation Procedure (Trial)" method issued by the China Animal Health and Epidemiology Center in August 2018, real-time quantitative PCR can be used to detect and detect swine fever virus (Method 1 of this document) .
The whole experiment can be divided into two parts:
Step 1 Nucleic Acid Extraction
Step 2 Real-time fluorescent PCR detection
In addition, evaluation and quality control of the swine fever virus detection process is required.
