Abstract
The African swine fever virus (ASFV) is a major global threat affecting pork production and strengthening biosecurity practices is an urgent priority, especially given the paucity of effective vaccines and antiviral drugs. Mitigation strategies focused on virus inactivation play an important role in controlling ASFV and there is growing recognition that multipronged mitigation strategies can not only achieve rapid decontamination of ASFV-exposed materials in different environmental settings but also support pig health by minimizing disease symptoms and preventing lateral transmission. Herein, we critically analyze the latest progress in developing thermal, chemical, and physical strategies to stop ASFV based on heat treatment, chemically reactive disinfectants, and physically disruptive mitigants. Our focus is on introducing ASFV-specific data that supports the use of different mitigation strategies in particular contexts and analyzing the corresponding inactivation mechanisms behind each strategy. In closing, we also discuss emerging innovation possibilities in the ASFV mitigation testing space and provide a forward-looking viewpoint of outstanding scientific questions and future research needs.
期刊介绍：
Transboundary and Emerging Diseases brings together in one place the latest research on infectious diseases considered to hold the greatest economic threat to animals and humans worldwide. The journal provides a venue for global research on their diagnosis, prevention and management, and for papers on public health, pathogenesis, epidemiology, statistical modeling, diagnostics, biosecurity issues, genomics, vaccine development and rapid communication of new outbreaks. Papers should include timely research approaches using state-of-the-art technologies. The editors encourage papers adopting a science-based approach on socio-economic and environmental factors influencing the management of the bio-security threat posed by these diseases, including risk analysis and disease spread modeling. Preference will be given to communications focusing on novel science-based approaches to controlling transboundary and emerging diseases. The following topics are generally considered out-of-scope, but decisions are made on a case-by-case basis (for example, studies on cryptic wildlife populations, and those on potential species extinctions):
Pathogen discovery: a common pathogen newly recognised in a specific country, or a new pathogen or genetic sequence for which there is little context about — or insights regarding — its emergence or spread.
Prevalence estimation surveys and risk factor studies based on survey (rather than longitudinal) methodology, except when such studies are unique. Surveys of knowledge, attitudes and practices are within scope.
Diagnostic test development if not accompanied by robust sensitivity and specificity estimation from field studies.
Studies focused only on laboratory methods in which relevance to disease emergence and spread is not obvious or can not be inferred (“pure research” type studies).
Narrative literature reviews which do not generate new knowledge. Systematic and scoping reviews, and meta-analyses are within scope.
