The Panbio Dengue Duo Cassette is a rapid immunochromatographic test designed for the qualitative, presumptive detection of IgM and IgG antibodies to dengue virus in human serum, plasma and whole blood.

The assay can be used for the presumptive differentiation between primary and secondary infection.  When present in the patient’s sample, dengue specific immunoglobulins of the IgM or IgG class bind to anti-human IgM or IgG antibodies immobilized in two lines across the cassette membrane. Colloidal gold complexes containing dengue 1-4 antigens are captured by the bound patient’s IgM or IgG to give visible pink line(s).  A procedural control is included to indicate that the assay has been performed correctly.

The IgG cut-off is set to detect the high levels of IgG present in secondary infection.
