Summary

Dengue is transmitted by the bite of an Aedes mosquito infected with any one of the four dengue viruses. It occurs in tropical and sub-tropical areas of the world. Symptoms appear 3—14 days after the infective bite. Dengue fever is a febrile illness that affects infants, young children and adults. Dengue haemorrhagic fever (fever, abdominal pain, vomiting, bleeding) is a potentially lethal complication, affecting mainly children. Early clinical diagnosis and careful clinical management by experienced physicians and nurses increase survival of patients. Dengue NS1 Ag-IgG/IgM Combo Test is a simple, visual qualitative test that detects dengue virus antibodies and dengue virus NS1 antigen in human Serum or Plasma. The test is based on immunochromatography and can give a result within 15 minutes.
