Focused qPCR screening for a high-consequence swine disease
African swine fever can require rapid, disciplined decisions. High Hope Vet supports private testing questions with ASF virus qPCR options and a clear submission workflow. We first clarify why testing is needed so the specimen plan and laboratory request fit the field question.
What this service can support
- Veterinary investigation of compatible herd-health concerns.
- Private monitoring plans designed by a farm or consulting veterinarian.
- Follow-up testing within a broader farm biosecurity review.
- Documented screening for internal production and veterinary decisions.

Before samples are dispatched
- Contact the laboratory with the herd context, signs, number of animals and testing objective.
- Confirm specimen types and quantity with the laboratory and your veterinarian.
- Use secure packaging, clear identifiers and the agreed temperature conditions.
- Provide enough field information for the result to be interpreted in context.
Results support veterinary and farm decision-making. They are not official government disease declarations, movement permits, export certificates or regulatory clearances.
Common questions
Can clients in Manila arrange ASF testing?
Yes. We serve veterinary teams coordinating submissions from Metro Manila and clients across the Philippines. Contact us before dispatch to align the specimen and delivery plan.
Which specimens should be submitted?
The appropriate specimen depends on the animals, clinical context and objective. Confirm the plan with your veterinarian and the laboratory before collection.
Does a result replace a veterinary investigation?
No. Laboratory findings should be reviewed with clinical signs, epidemiology, sampling quality and veterinary judgment.
