Detection of African Swine Fever Virus Antibodies in Serum and Oral Fluid Specimens Using a Recombinant Protein 30 (p30) Dual Matrix Indirect ELISA - Fig 2

ASFV recombinant p30 antibody ELISA sample-to-positive (S/P) responses in (2A) individual pig serum (mean, SE) and (2B) pen-based oral fluid samples following inoculation with replicon particle (RP) vaccines expressing ASFV p30 or a combination of ASFV p30/54/72. Controls were defined as unvaccinated pigs (one pen of 4 pigs) and pigs inoculated with RP vaccines expressing ASFV p54 (one pen of 8 pigs) or ASFV p72 (one pen of 8 pigs). In all cases, pigs received two doses of vaccine (days 0 and 21).</p
