The Truenat® Dengue/Chikungunya Test Kit can simultaneously test for both Dengue and Chikungunya in human blood/plasma/serum samples.
Dengue is viral infection causing severe flu-like illness, the WHO defines it as a fast-emerging pandemic-prone viral disease transmitted by Aedes mosquitoes. With an estimated 100–400 million infections occurring each year, half of the world’s population is now at risk of dengue. While many dengue infections are asymptomatic or produce only mild illness, the virus can occasionally cause more severe cases, and even death.
Chikungunya, transmitted by mosquitoes in Africa, Asia, and the Americas, causes fever and severe joint pain. Its symptoms resemble those of dengue and Zika, making misdiagnosis common. This highlights the need for more accurate molecular tests for proper diagnosis.
