Dengue IgG & IgM Rapid Test Kits

The test can be used for the presumptive distinction between a primary and secondary dengue infection.

Serum, plasma, or Whole blood samples may be used with this test. A sample is dispensed on to the membrane The sample then migrates by capillary action towards the test site where anti-Human IgG and anti-Human IgM are immobilized as two distinct lines. The IgG & IgM antibodies present in the sample will bind to the immobilized anti-Human IgG and Anti-Human IgM lines on the membrane. Next the sample buffer is applied which in turn reconstitutes the dried Dengue gold conjugate. The Dengue conjugate then migrates towards the test zone and binds to Dengue Anti-Human IgG and Dengue Anti-Human IgM complex on the membrane as two separate red lines if Dengue antibodies are present in the sample. The intensity of the test lines will vary depending upon the amount of antibody present in the sample. The appearance of pink line in a specific test region (IgG or IgM) should be considered as positive for that particular antibody type (IgG or IgM).  There will be a third control line on the membrane which will be invisible untill the test is run.  It will show up as a red control line to indicate that the test is functioning properly.
