Epidemiology
Chikungunya is an acute febrile illness caused by the chikungunya virus (CHIKV), which is transmitted by Aedes mosquitoes. Its hallmark symptoms include fever, rash, and severe joint pain. The disease was first recognized as endemic in Tanzania in 1952, and the virus was isolated in 1956. It primarily circulates in Africa and Southeast Asia, with a massive epidemic occurring in the Indian Ocean basin in recent years [1]. CHIKV consists of a single serotype and is classified into three genotypes: West African, Central‑East‑Southern African, and Asian [2]. The virus has now been detected in more than 110 countries across Asia, Africa, Europe, and the Americas [3]. Clinically, chikungunya closely mimics dengue fever, leading to frequent misdiagnosis. Although mortality is very low, large‑scale outbreaks can arise in regions with high Aedes mosquito density [4]. This kit detects IgM and IgG antibodies in human whole blood, serum, or plasma specimens and serves as an auxiliary diagnostic tool for early chikungunya virus infection in clinical practice. It is intended for use in individuals who present with symptoms suggestive of chikungunya.
Work flow
Carefully read the instruction manual before performing the test. Prior to testing, bring all reagents and specimens to room temperature from their storage conditions. The assay must be run at room temperature.
Serum, plasma, and whole blood samples
- Remove the test card from its aluminum foil pouch and place it on a flat, dry surface.
- Using a pipette, dispense 1 drop (approximately 10 µL) of serum, plasma, or whole blood into the sample well marked “S”.
- Immediately add 2 drops (about 70 µL) of sample diluent to the same well.
- Read the result between 15 and 20 minutes. Results interpreted after 20 minutes are not valid.
