The Dengue and Chikungunya Viruses PCR Qualitative Test is a sophisticated diagnostic procedure available at DNA Labs UAE, designed to accurately detect the presence of the dengue and chikungunya viruses in the body. Utilizing the Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) technique, this test amplifies specific segments of the virus’s DNA or RNA, allowing for the qualitative analysis of these pathogens. This is crucial for the timely and accurate diagnosis of these diseases, which are both spread by mosquitoes and can lead to severe flu-like symptoms, and in some cases, more serious complications. The test is priced at 1050 AED, reflecting the advanced technology and expertise required to conduct this analysis. With its high sensitivity and specificity, the Dengue and Chikungunya Viruses PCR Qualitative Test at DNA Labs UAE is a key tool in the management and control of these infectious diseases, providing essential information for the appropriate treatment and care of affected individuals.

Test Details:

The Dengue & Chikungunya Viruses PCR Qualitative test is a diagnostic tool used to detect the presence of Dengue and Chikungunya viruses in a patient’s blood sample. PCR (Polymerase Chain Reaction) is a molecular biology technique that amplifies and detects specific DNA or RNA sequences, allowing for the identification of pathogens.

This test is typically performed when a patient presents with symptoms of dengue or chikungunya, such as fever, headache, joint and muscle pain, rash, and fatigue. It can also be used for screening purposes in areas where these viruses are prevalent.

During the test, a small amount of the patient’s blood is collected and sent to a laboratory. The laboratory technicians extract the viral genetic material (RNA) from the blood sample and use PCR to amplify specific regions of the viral genome. If the Dengue or Chikungunya viruses are present in the sample, the amplified genetic material will be detected using fluorescent probes or other detection methods.

The PCR Qualitative test is highly sensitive and specific, allowing for the accurate detection of Dengue and Chikungunya viruses. It can differentiate between the different serotypes of Dengue virus (DENV-1, DENV-2, DENV-3, and DENV-4) and identify the specific strain of Chikungunya virus.

The results of the test are usually reported as positive or negative, indicating the presence or absence of the viruses in the patient’s blood sample. Positive results can confirm the diagnosis of Dengue or Chikungunya infection, while negative results suggest that the viruses are not present at detectable levels.

It is important to note that the PCR Qualitative test is a laboratory-based test and requires specialized equipment and trained personnel to perform. It is not a point-of-care test and may take several hours or days to obtain results, depending on the laboratory’s turnaround time.
