Dengue Test Kit

●The Dengue NS1 Rapid Test is a lateral flow chromatographic immunoassay. The test cassette consists of: 1) a burgundy colored conjugate pad containing mouse anti-dengue NS1 antigen conjugated with colloid gold (Dengue Ab conjugates), 2) a nitrocellulose membrane strip containing a test band (T band) and a control band (C band). The T band is pre-coated with mouse anti-dengue NS1 antigen, and the C band is pre-coated with goat anti-mouse IgG antibody. The antibodies to dengue antigen recognize the antigens from all the four serotypes of the dengue virus.
●When an adequate volume of test specimen is dispensed into the sample well of the cassette, the specimen migrates by capillary action across the test cassette. Dengue NS1 Ag if present in the specimen will bind to the Dengue Ab conjugates. The immunocomplex is then captured on the membrane by the pre-coated mouse antiNS1 antibody, forming a burgundy colored T band, indicating a Dengue Ag positive test result.
●Absence of the T band suggests a negative result. The test contains an internal control (C band) which should exhibit a burgundy colored band of the immunocomplex of goat anti-mouse IgG/mouse IgG-gold conjugate regardless of the presence of colored T band. Otherwise, the test result is invalid and the specimen must be retested with another device.

Advantages

-Early diagnosis: The kit can detect NS1 antigen as early as 1-2 days after onset of fever, which can aid in early diagnosis and treatment

-Suitable for multiple sample types: The kit can be used for serum, plasma or whole blood samples, making it convenient for different types of clinical settings

-Reduced need for laboratory testing: The kit reduces the need for laboratory testing and allows for more rapid diagnosis in resource-limited settings

Dengue Fever

●Dengue fever is an infectious illness prevalent in tropical regions, transmitted by mosquitoes carrying the dengue virus. The dengue virus is transferred to humans when they are bitten by a mosquito of the Aedes species that is infected. Additionally, these mosquitoes can also transmit Zika, chikungunya, and various other viruses.
●Dengue outbreaks are prevalent in numerous countries worldwide, spanning across the Americas, Africa, the Middle East, Asia, and the Pacific Islands. Individuals residing in or traveling to regions with a potential for dengue transmission are susceptible to contracting the disease. Approximately 4 billion people, accounting for nearly half of the global population, inhabit areas where the risk of dengue exists. In these regions, dengue frequently ranks as a primary cause of illness.
●Currently, there is no designated medication for the treatment of dengue. It is advised to manage the symptoms of dengue and seek medical attention from a healthcare professional.
