Virus isolation and identification by HAD are recommended as a reference test for the confirmation of positive results of a prior ELISA, PCR or DIFT. They are also recommended when ASF has already been confirmed by other methods, particularly in case of a primary outbreak or case of ASF.
ASF viruses isolated in pig macrophages can be used for virus characterisation and molecular epidemiology.
