36
Test kit result should be read in _______minutes. Reading too late can give false results
15-20 mins
37
Negative- The control line is only visible on the test device indicates
No IgG and IgM antibodies were detected. Retest in 3-5 days if dengue infection is suspected.
38
IgM Positive- The Control Line and IgM Line are visible on the test device
positive for IgM antibodies to Dengue virus. primary dengue infection
39
IgG Positive- The control line and IgG Line are visible on the test device
This is positive for IgG antibodies. secondary or previous dengue infection
40
IgG and IgM Positive- The control, IgG, IgM lines are visible on the test device
This is positive for both IgM and IgG antibodies. late primary or early secondary dengue infection
41
Invalid- The control line fails to appear
Insufficient specimen volume or incorrect procedural techniques are the likeliest reasons for control line failure. Repeat the test using a new test device.
42
DENGUE NS-1 Antigen negative result
presence of a purple line Control
43
DENGUE NS-1 Antigen positie result
presence of purple lines each at the Control and the Test area.
44
DENGUE NS-1 Antigen invalid result
absence of purple lines on both the Control and the Test area
