Clinical significance:
Detection of NS1 Antigen by is valuable as it detects infection prior to seroconversion. It can be detected in serum from day 1 after onset of
fever and up to 9 days. This helps in early implementation of supportive therapy & monitoring, this in turn reduces risk of complications such
as Dengue hemorrhagic fever or Dengue shock syndrome.
Intended use:
Qualitative or semi-quantitative detection of Dengue virus NS1 antigen in human serum or plasma by enzyme immunoassay.
Interpretation:
1. Negative: No detectable Dengue NS1 antigen. The result does not rule out Dengue infection. An additional sample should be tested
with serology in 7-14 days.
2. Equivocal: Equivocal samples should be repeated. Samples that remain equivocal after repeat testing should be repeated by an
alternative method or another sample should be collected.
3. Positive: Presence of detectable Dengue NS1 antigen. Dengue serology assays should be performed on follow-up samples to confirm
Dengue infection.
Limitations:
1. Negative result does not rule out Dengue infection. An additional sample should be tested with serology in 7-14 days.
2. Diagnosis of recent infection can only be established on the basis of a combination of clinical and biological data. The result obtained
on a single sample does not constitute a sufficient proof for diagnosis of recent infection.
