- The in-house developed fourth-generation rapid test aids in the diagnosis of an early acute infection, including primary or secondary infection
- Detects NS1 antigen from all four dengue serotypes (DEN1, 2, 3, 4) in human serum, plasma, or whole blood specimen
- A simple assay procedure yields results within 20-25 minutes
Clinical performance:
- Limit of Detection: detection of NS1 protein in all 4 types of dengue virus lysate I, II, III, and IV. The limit of detection is 0.25 ng/mL as determined on recombinant dengue NS1 antigen from serotype 2 (DEN2)
- Sensitivity: 100%
- Specificity: 98.75% compared to a commercial ELISA
- Cross-Reactivity: no cross-reactivity was found on 6-10 positive specimens from the 21 disease states, such as chikungunya, ZIKV, malaria, leishmania, Typhoid, and others
- No interference with some common substances, such as Albumin (60 g/L), Bilirubin (20 mg/dL), EDTA (3.4 µmol/L), Glucose (55 mmol/L), Heparin (3,000 U/L), Salicylic acid (4.34 mmol/L), Sodium citrate (3.8%), Human IgG (1,000 mg/dL)
