Abstract: African swine fever (ASF) is a hemorrhagic, highly contagious disease caused by ASF virus (ASFV). The clinical symptoms of the disease are very similar to those of classical swine fever. ASF firstly occurred in Shenyang, Liaoning province in August 2018, and then spreaded rapidly to 31 provinces or regions of China, causing direct economic losses more than tens of billions  RMB. Because no effective vaccine is commercially available, rapid, sensitive, and convenient diagnostic techniques are critical to prevent and eradicate the disease. This paper summarized the current diagnostic methods of ASFV, and comparatively analyzed their performance. At the same time, it discussed the future development direction and trend of ASFV diagnostic technology to provide technical reference for ASF surveillance and comprehensive prevention and control in China.
