Dengue is a viral infection caused by the bite of female mosquito belonging to species Aedes aegypti and Aedes albopictus. Dengue antibody IgG test indicates the secondary dengue infection and detects the presence of IgG antibodies produced by the body to fight the infection against the dengue virus. This results in decreased white blood cells and platelets count in the body. The symptoms of dengue fever include high fever, chills, joints pain, bleeding gums, nausea etc. The prompt and early detection can help in medical intervention to prevent the severity of the infection. The later may lead to fatal conditions like Dengue hemorrhagic fever, Dengue shock syndrome and extreme fall in platelets and white blood cells count. Dengue is mostly caused by mosquitos born during rainy season. So it is recommended to wear fully covered clothes during rainy season and to avoid accumulation of stagnant water.
These antibodies are produced by the immune system in response to a previous dengue virus infection.
The EIA method involves using dengue virus antigens that can bind to the IgG antibodies present in the patient's serum. If IgG 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 IgG antibodies indicates a past dengue virus infection. IgG antibodies typically appear within a few weeks after the onset of symptoms and can persist for a long time, providing long-term immunity against the specific dengue virus serotype(s) that caused the infection.
Dengue IgG testing is particularly useful in retrospective diagnosis, serosurveys, and determining the immune status of individuals, especially in endemic areas. It can help healthcare professionals identify individuals who have been previously exposed to dengue virus and differentiate between primary and secondary infections.
However, it should be noted that IgG testing alone cannot provide information about the timing or frequency of past dengue infections. Additional tests, such as IgM testing or a rising antibody titer, may be required to provide a more comprehensive understanding of an individual's dengue infection history.
In summary, the Dengue IgG, EIA, Serum is a valuable tool for diagnosing past dengue virus infections. It helps healthcare professionals assess the immune status of individuals and aids in epidemiological studies and surveillance efforts related to dengue fever.
