    Snippet: Currently available diagnostic tests used for dengue diagnosis in most dengue-endemic countries include commercially available IgM-and IgG-based ELISAs. These assays use dengue-specific antigens from all 4 serotypes (DENV [1] [2] [3] [4] and are designed to capture anti-dengue specific antibodies present in serum. However, serology tests are usually inconsistent since detection of antibodies requires appropriate collection times and test results .....

However, serology tests are usually inconsistent since detection of antibodies requires appropriate collection times and test results may be confused with false-positive reactions due to the presence of antibodies from previous infections.
