Abstract
African swine fever virus (ASFV) is a large and complex DNA virus that causes a highly contagious and often lethal swine viral disease, for which no vaccine and effective treatments are available yet. Hence, ASFV presents significant economic consequences for the swine industry. A rapid and simple diagnostic method is urgently needed to monitor ASFV-specific antibodies for controlling the spread of ASFV. In this study, we chose the truncated p54 protein as an antigen and combined it with Eu-doped fluorescent microspheres as tracers to detect anti-ASFV antibodies specifically. Results showed that the truncated p54 protein had high specificity to ASFV antibody and had no cross-reactions with other swine virus antibodies. The results between our fluorescent immunochromatography test strip (FICTS) and commercial ELISA kits showed high consistency. The proposed FICTS offers a rapid, sensitive, specific, and visual method for ASFV antibody detection and shows great potential for ASF epidemic surveillance and control.Entities:
