Genetic sequencing refines CSFV strain tracking beyond antibody panels; leaves open validation for routine veterinary surveillance.
Genetic sequencing of classical swine fever virus isolates is more informative than monoclonal antibody panels for epidemiological tracking of outbreaks.
Lowings et al. (1994) studied Classical swine fever (n=8). Genetic sequencing vs. Monoclonal antibodies was evaluated on Genetic subgrouping of virus isolates. Genetic sequencing of 8 classical swine fever virus isolates allowed assignment into three subgroups, suggesting at least two separate introductions in Italy over 7 years.
