Pushing the Limits: LFA Sensitivity for African Swine Fever (ASFV) Detection

The ASFV Challenge

African Swine Fever Virus (ASFV) requires early detection to prevent herd devastation. Standard colloidal gold strips often miss low viral loads in the incubation phase.

Enhancing Sensitivity

To detect ASFV at pogram levels, we recommend using Due Bio High-Bind Nitrocellulose combined with Europium bead labels (fluorescent LFA). Our membranes are optimized for low-background fluorescence reading, enabling 10-100x higher sensitivity than visual gold assays.
