Panbio Dengue Capture IGG / IGM Capture (96W)

Panbio Dengue Capture IGG / IGM Capture (96W)

The Panbio dengue IgG Capture ELISA is for the qualitative presumptive detection of elevated IgG antibodies to dengue virus (serotypes 1-4) in patients with secondary infection. This test is intended as an aid in the clinical laboratory diagnosis of patients presenting with clinical symptoms consistent with dengue virus infection, and should be used in conjuction with the Panbio Dengue IgM Capture ELISA and Dengue Early ELISA, which also detects primary dengue virus infection. High IgG levels indicative of secondary dengue are detectable on the Panbio Dengue IgG Capture ELISA as early as 3 days post onset of illness. However, the peak detection window for accurate secondary diagnosis is 6-15 days following onset of illness. Positive results are presumptive and must be confirmed by virus isolation, paired serum analysis, antigen detection by immunohistochemistry or viral nucleic acid detection for confirmation of dengue virus infection.

The Panbio Dengue IgM Capture ELISA is for the qualitative detection of IgM antibodies to dengue antigen in serum, as an aid in the clinical laboratory diagnosis of patients with clinical symptoms consistent with dengue fever. The Panbio Dengue IgM capture ELISA should be used in conjunction with other dengue serology.
