Notice of Withdrawal of Select Agent Regulatory Exclusion for African Swine Fever Virus-G-ΔI177L

Краткое содержание

We are advising the public that the Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service (APHIS) has withdrawn the select agent regulatory exclusion for African swine fever virus (ASFV) strain, ASFV-G- [Delta]I177L. Possession, use, and transfer of this strain must now comply with the select agent and toxin regulations. APHIS withdrew the select agent regulatory exclusion for this strain because it has evaluated new information and determined that this strain, when adapted to cell lines other than that used for virus development, has the potential to pose a severe threat to animal health or animal products.
