name | Dengue virus IgG and IgM [Identifier] in Serum, Plasma or Blood by Rapid immunoassay | ||
description | A rapid immunochromatographic qualitative screening assay for IgG and IgM antibodies to Dengue virus. In primary dengue infection, a strong IgM antibody response occurs and is detectable by the fourth day of illness. A weaker IgG response becomes detectable after one week of symptoms. Low levels of IgG persist for life but if the patient becomes infected again, a strong IgG response can be detected two days after onset of symptoms, while a weaker IgM response is detectable four to five days after symptoms begin. This makes combination IgG & IgM Dengue antibody rapid tests very useful in endemic areas. Many companies make kits for this test, which is done in many regions of the world. Most of the kits are for ser/plas and testing can be performed in approximately 30 minutes or less. Some are for ser/plas/bld. | ||
status | ACTIVE | ||
Fully-Specified Name | |||
component | Dengue virus Ab.IgG & IgM | ||
property | Prid = Presence or identity: Prid stands for “Presence or identity”, is used for assays that detect whether or not an analyte of a particular kind is present, and if it is, to identify the specific analyte. | ||
time | Pt = Point in time: To identify measures at a point in time. This is a synonym for “spot” or “random” as applied to urine measurements. | ||
system | Ser/Plas/Bld Ser = Serum Plas = Plasma Bld = Whole blood | ||
scale | Nom = Nominal: Nominal or categorical responses that do not have a natural ordering. (e.g., names of bacteria, reported as answers, categories of appearance that do not have a natural ordering, such as, yellow, clear, bloody. | ||

last change type | MIN - change to field other than name | ||
change reason | The EIA method, which was always intended to cover more than just enzyme-linked immunoassay and whose display name for the long common name has always been Immunoassay, was renamed IA in order to eliminate ambiguity about whether the method has a broader meaning than just enzyme-linked immunoassay. Likewise, EIA.rapid was renamed IA.rapid. These changes were approved by the Laboratory LOINC Committee in June 2016. | ||
