Modified Vaccinia Virus Ankara as a Potential Biosafety Level 2 Surrogate for African Swine Fever Virus in Disinfectant Efficacy Tests

Abstract: In South Korea, despite the increase in emerging viral pathogens in the veterinary industry, only efficacy-tested, virus-specific disinfectants are allowed to be used. Moreover, domestic testing of disinfectants for their virucidal efficacies against foreign, malignant, infectious pathogens that are unreported within the country and/or contagious livestock diseases that require special attention regarding public hygiene are legally restricted. Therefore, the Animal and Plant Quarantine Agency (APQA) designed a… Show more

“…T5In South Korea, veterinary disinfectants are regulated by the Animal and Plant Quarantine Agency (APQA), and the agency currently has a system to review and register label claims of the formulations and recommended concentrations against the target microorganisms according to its guidelines for efficacy testing of veterinary disinfectants [7,8]. However, testing of disinfectants against FMDV can be conducted only in high-level containment laboratories, which are not easily available.…”

“…Additionally, the required biosafety level (BSL) for FMDV has hindered its extensive studies. The APQA guidelines have approved the use of surrogate organism for claims of activity against bacteria [7]; however, this does not apply to viruses, and testing is required against each virus to be listed on the product label [8]. Therefore, the use of a surrogate for FMDV in chemical disinfectant testing has been suggested.…”

“…ASFV is the only member of the Asfarviridae family, making surrogate selection a challenge. To address this, we utilized species-relevant swinepox virus and the genetically similar virus, vaccinia virus [25][26][27]. Both swinepox and vaccinia virus are members of the Poxvirus family and like Asfarviridae, are nucleocytoplasmic large DNA viruses (NCLDV) that share a common ancestor [28].…”
