Dengue testing

Dengue testing products are related tools or reagents used to detect the presence of dengue virus infection.
These products can usually assist in the diagnosis of dengue infection by detecting markers such as viral antigens, antibodies or nucleic acids in samples such as blood and serum.
Common dengue testing products include rapid test kits, PCR test reagents, and others.

The following is a detailed description of the Dengue Fever Test product:
Specific application: mainly used for clinical diagnosis, outbreak monitoring and epidemiological investigation to determine whether individuals are infected with dengue virus.
Usage method:
Specimen collection: blood or serum samples are usually collected from patients.
Detection process: operate according to the requirements of different testing products, which may include antigen-antibody reaction, nucleic acid amplification and other steps.
Characteristics:
High sensitivity: capable of detecting lower concentrations of viral markers.
High specificity: good recognition of dengue virus, reducing false positives.
Rapid: some tests can produce results in a short period of time, which facilitates timely diagnosis and measures.
Relatively easy to operate: some tests can be operated in the laboratory or on-site.

There are several main detection principles of Dengue Fever testing products:
Antigen detection: detects the antigenic protein of the virus. For example, Dengue virus NS1 antigen is detected and the specific binding of antigen to antibody is utilized to determine the presence of the virus.
Antibody testing: Detects antibodies produced by the body against the dengue virus, including IgM and IgG antibodies. The presence of antibodies is used to infer the presence or absence of dengue virus infection.
Nucleic acid test: Based on polymerase chain reaction (PCR) technology, the nucleic acid (RNA) of the virus is detected to determine the presence of viral infection.
