The KaiBiLiTM Dengue IgG/IgM Rapid Test Device is a lateral flow chromatographic immunoassay for the qualitative detection of dengue IgG/IgM in human whole blood, serum or plasma. It is intended to be used as a screening test and as an aid in the diagnosis of infection with Dengue viruses. Any reactive specimen with the Dengue IgG/IgM Rapid Test Device must be confirmed with alternative testing method(s) and clinical findings.
Introduction
Dengue viruses, a family of four distinct serotypes of viruses (Den 1,2,3,4), are single-strained, enveloped, positive-sense RNA viruses. The viruses are transmitted by mosquitoes of the daytime-bitting Stegemyia family, principally Aedes aegypti, and Aedes albopictus. Today, more than 2.5 billion people living in the areas of tropical Asia, Africa, Australia, and the Americas are at risk for dengue infection. An estimated 100 million cases of dengue fever and 250,000 cases of life-threatening dengue hemorrhagic fever occur annually on a worldwide basis.
Serological detection of IgG/IgM antibody is the most common method for the diagnosis of dengue virus infection.
Detection
The KaiBiLiTM Dengue IgG/IgM Rapid Test is a rapid test that utilize a combination of Dengue antigen coated colored particles for the detection of IgG and IgM Dengue antibodies in human whole blood, serum, or plasma.
