Track ASF viruses at every level with Bertin Life Sciences' solutions

26 Jun 2026

This poster from Bertin Life Sciences (part of Bertin Technologies) presents an integrated approach to monitoring African swine fever (ASF), combining environmental surveillance with rapid animal diagnostics. The workflow uses Coriolis air samplers to capture airborne viral particles and Precellys systems for efficient preparation of animal samples, enabling comprehensive detection of ASF virus across different stages of infection.

The approach supports both viral detection and genomic characterization, allowing improved understanding of transmission pathways and outbreak dynamics. By linking environmental monitoring with laboratory analysis, the workflow enables earlier detection, faster confirmation, and more effective control of viral spread.

Coriolis+ - Air Sampler

Bertin Technologies

The Coriolis Micro portable biological air sampler is a standard for testing air quality. Both indoors and outdoors, it’s the most efficient biological air sampler: It can take just 10 minutes to collect airborne particles using its cyclonic technology paired with a high suction rate. By generating samples in the fluid phase, Coriolis µ is compatible with rapid microbiological analysis methods.

Environmental Monitoring and TestingEnvironmental monitoring and testing uses handheld portable analyzers, kits, spectrometers or chromatography systems for air, water, soil, food and other sample testing. Useful features of analyzers such as BOD and COD include portability, easy calibration, automation and sensitivity.  Environmental test kits for pH, water, moisture, etc, should be accurate, sensitive, reliable, fast and easy to use.RT qPCRReal-time quantitative PCR (RT-qPCR) is a technique used to measure gene expression and quantify DNA or RNA in real-time. It is essential in genomics, diagnostics, and biotechnology research. Explore RT-qPCR systems in our peer-reviewed product directory; compare products, check reviews, and get pricing directly from manufacturers.Infectious DiseaseInfectious disease diagnostics refers to the isolation and identification of causative agents, such as viruses, bacteria or fungi. Diagnostic tests include bacterial culture, microscopy, chemistry assays, molecular diagnostics and MALDI-TOF. Tests can be carried out in the laboratory or at the point-of-care.Air SamplingAir sampling is described as the technique used to capture air for the subsequent purpose of analyzing, typically by thermal desorption, the presence of trace particulates, such as volatile organic compounds (VOCs).
