Simultaneous Detection of Classical and African Swine Fever Viruses by Duplex Taqman Real-Time PCR Assay in Pigs Infected with Both Diseases

Abstract excerpt

The increasing spread of African swine fever (ASF) in recent years and the presence of classical swine fever (CSF) subclinical forms in endemic countries suggests that the possibility of coinfection with ASF virus (ASFV) and CSF virus (CSFV) in pigs cannot be ruled out in areas where both diseases are prevalent. Thus, rapid and reliable diagnosis through molecular testing is essential for the timely...
