Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

Dengue virus serological reagent, included antigen and antiserum, is a serum test for identification of serum antibodies to dengue virus.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

The developed assay helps to diagnose diseases caused by this virus and to provide information on disease epidemiology. This virus is mainly transmitted by mosquito bites to people and will make flu-like symptoms, including fever, fatigue, cough and headache, which can cause severe hemorrhagic dengue.

Eligibility Criteria

Check the participation requirements, including inclusion and exclusion rules, age limits, and whether healthy volunteers are accepted.

Inclusion Criteria

1. Case group: adults having a medical visit or admission due to dengue / dengue hemorrhagic fever / dengue shock syndrome, and medical care of by (defined by CDC). Any of the following positive test results for the case of 100 adults.

1. clinical specimens (blood) isolated and identified dengue virus.
2. clinical specimens positive for molecular detection of nucleic acids.
3. serological antigen (referring to non-structural proteins of dengue virus non-structural protein 1, NS1) testing positive (based on the test of Bio-Rad DENGUE NS1 Ag STRIP).
4. paired serum (restored period and acute phase), the dengue virus specific immunoglobulin M or immunoglobulin G antibodies or negative or ≧ 4 times increase.
2. Suspected cases: adults having medical visits or admissions due to infectious disease, but their NS1 (based on the test of Bio-Rad DENGUE NS1 Ag STRIP), immunoglobulin G,immunoglobulin M, real time-Polymerase chain reaction testing were negative.
