Deskripsi

Dengue is a vector borne disease, known for its serious life threatening complications. It is endemic in India. Early diagnosis of dengue virus is important and can be established with the easily available laboratory tests. Rapid tests detecting NS1, IgM, and IgG identify the cases at earlier stage, thus reducing the morbidity and the mortality due to dengue haemorrhagic fever(DHF) and dengue shock syndrome (DSS).
