Request for Proposal to Collect Positive Samples for Foot and Mouth Disease, African Swine Fever, and Classical Swine Fever: In an effort to enhance the sample types and test platforms available for African Swine Fever (ASF), Classic Swine Fever (CSF) and Foot and Mouth Disease (FMD) diagnostics, Veterinary Services (VS) hopes to partner with United States Center for Veterinary Medicine (CVM) faculty and students working jointly with international institutions or organizations to collect and submit positive samples from affected countries to the Foreign Animal Disease Diagnostic Laboratory (FADDL).
