a
The reactivity of the serum from each animal was compared to the reactivity of the positive-control serum (ASFV-specific convalescent-phase serum). The number of plus signs represents the intensity of the reaction, as follows: ++++, as strong as the positive-control serum; ++, weak but positive signal. The minus sign (−) indicates the absence of signal. The best response is indicated in boldface. Mock-infected cells showed no reactivity.
b
Positive control.
c
Negative control.
