Abstract
We evaluated the FDA cleared InBios Dengue virus (DENV) IgM Capture ELISA for qualitative detection of anti-DENV IgM antibodies from 79 serum samples obtained from dengue-infected patients or suspected cases. Agreement, sensitivity and specificity of InBios assay compared to ‘gold standard’ in-house DENV IgM Capture ELISA was 94, 92 and 94%, respectively. We conclude that InBios DENV IgM Capture ELISA can be effectively used for rapid diagnosis of acute or recent DENV infection.
