Dengue is an infection caused by the bite of infected mosquitoes born during the rainy season more prevalently. This test indicates the presence of IgM antibodies produced by the body to fight the infection of dengue virus.The symptoms of dengue fever include high fever, chills, joints pain, bleeding gums and nausea. IgM antibodies are the first type of antibodies produced by the body hence help in early detection. Late diagnosis or treatment may lead to fatal conditions like dengue hemorrhagic fever, dengue shock syndrome and extreme fall in platelets and white blood cells count. As the IgM antibodies appear in the body after 4-5 days of infection. Therefore a negative IgM test does not rule out the possibility of dengue infection always. A repeated test after 6-7 days is recommended.
These antibodies are produced by the immune system in response to dengue virus infection.
The EIA method involves using dengue virus antigens that can bind to the IgM antibodies present in the patient's serum. If the IgM antibodies are present, they will bind to these antigens, resulting in a color change that can be detected by a spectrophotometer or visually.
The presence of IgM antibodies indicates recent or current dengue virus infection. IgM antibodies typically appear within 3-5 days after the onset of symptoms and can persist for several weeks. This test is particularly useful in diagnosing dengue infections during the early acute phase of the disease.
However, it should be noted that a positive IgM result does not differentiate between primary and secondary dengue infections. Additional tests, such as IgG testing or a rising antibody titer, may be required to distinguish between the two.
In summary, the Dengue IgM, EIA, Serum is a valuable tool for diagnosing recent or current dengue virus infections. It helps healthcare professionals identify patients who are actively infected with dengue and enables appropriate medical management and monitoring.
