Key result
The microfluidic-CFPA system detected African swine fever virus in pig samples with 92.73% sensitivity, 100% specificity, and a median time to threshold of 10.8 minutes.
Why the study?
African swine fever outbreaks pose serious public safety challenges worldwide, creating a need for reliable diagnostic tools to prevent and control epidemics.
Does the microfluidic-CFPA system accurately and rapidly detect African swine fever virus in pig samples?
