Jun 13, 2019 · As the immune system fights the infection, IgM antibodies against dengue virus are detectable starting 4-5 days after onset of symptoms and are reliably detectable for approximately 12 weeks. Combined testing with a nucleic acid amplification test (NAAT) and MAC-ELISA usually provides a diagnostic result during the first 1-7 days of illness.
Laboratory diagnosis methods for confirming dengue virus infection may involve detection of the virus, viral nucleic acid, antigens or antibodies, or a combination of these techniques. After the onset of illness, the virus can be detected in serum, plasma, circulating blood cells and other tissues for 4–5 days.

Sep 20, 2019 · Dengue virus (DENV) belongs to the family Flaviviridae, genus Flavivirus. It is a single-stranded positive-sense ribonucleic acid virus with 10,700 bases. The genus Flavivirus includes other arthropod borne viruses such as yellow fever virus, West Nile virus, Zika virus, tick-borne encephalitis virus. It infects ~50–200 million people ...

Nov 24, 2020 · Role of Non-structural Protein 1 (NS1) Viral Antigen. Dengue virus genome encodes for three structural proteins (C, prM (M), and E) and seven non-structural (NS) proteins (NS1, NS2a, NS2B, NS3, NS4a, NS4B, and NS5). The most important non-structural protein which has been implicated in the pathogenesis of dengue viral infections is NS1 .
Oct 1, 2023 · The non-structural protein NS1 is a protein found in dengue viruses that can be detected using commercial tests including Immunochromatographic tests (ICT). A negative molecular or NS1 test result is not conclusive [98]. Any serum sample collected from symptomatic patients during the first 1–7 days of illness should be tested for Nucleic Acid ...
