Abstract excerpt
African Swine Fever Virus (ASFV) is the causative agent of devastating disease affecting domestic and wild pigs globally. A previous study of the intranasal inoculation of domestic pigs (DP) and wild boar (WB) with the ASFV genotype II strain "Armenia 2007" demonstrated distinct disease outcomes. This study aims to compare the leukocyte, cytokine and biochemical profiles in experimentally infected DP and WB....
