Dengue Test. Mobile No. 01941123488. The dengue test is a common pathological test that is done for detecting dengue virus. This virus spreads from mosquitoes to people. Dengue Ns1, RT–PCR, IgG, IgM, CBC, Basic Metabolic Panel (BMP).
Pathology Training Centers provide the training about Dengue Test. HRTD Medical Institute is one of the best Medical Training institutes that provide Pathology Training. Available Pathology Courses are a Pathology Training Course, a Diploma in Pathology Assistant, a Diploma in Pathology Technology, and a Diploma in Pathology.
Laboratories for dengue tests
Different laboratories have done this test such as molecular lab ( by polymerase chain reaction), Hematology lab ( by complete blood count), Immunology or serology lab (by Ns1).

Diagnosis of dengue
Dengue fever is diagnosed by different tests, such as
- Dengue Ns1
- RT–PCR
- IgG
- IgM
- CBC
- Basic Metabolic Panel (BMP)
Dengue Ns1
NS1 test detects the non-structural protein(NS1) of dengue virus. This protein is secreted into the blood during dengue infection. This test was done by serum. The test is very common and most popular in Bangladesh.
Interpretation of results
- A positive NS1 test result confirms dengue virus infection.
- A negative NS1 test result does not rule out infection.
RT–PCR
Over 2.5 billion people are at risk from dengue fever. Early diagnosis helps to diminish its burden on public health. The real-time reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) is the standard for molecular detection of dengue virus (DENV) in the acute phase of dengue fever
Antibody Tests (IgM and IgG)
Antibody tests focus on detecting the antibodies generated by the immune system when an individual has encountered the dengue virus. These tests yield the best results when it is conducted at least four days following exposure. By analyzing the presence of specific antibodies, healthcare professionals can determine whether a person has been previously exposed to the virus, assisting in confirming the diagnosis.
Complete Blood Count (CBC)
The complete blood count test is employed to assess various cells and Cell components of the blood. One crucial aspect is the platelet count, which tends to decrease during the later stages of dengue fever. Monitoring platelet levels is essential as low platelet count can lead to bleeding complications. Additionally, the CBC helps identify changes in hemoglobin, hematocrit, and red blood cell count, indicating the presence of anemia, often associated with severe dengue fever.
Basic Metabolic Panel (BMP)
The basic metabolic panel test is conducted to evaluate kidney function and detect signs of dehydration, which can arise during severe dengue illness. By assessing the levels of various electrolytes and substances in the blood, healthcare providers can monitor the impact of the virus on the kidneys and address any dehydration-related concerns promptly.
