DiAGSure® Chikunguniya TaqMan PCR Kit

Catalog No.: GDQ2033-20R, GDQ2033-50R, GDQ2033-100R
Intent to use:
The DiAGSure® Chikungunya Detection Kit is a real-time PCR assay developed for the sensitive and specific detection of Chikungunya virus (CHIKV) RNA in human clinical samples. Chikungunya is an arboviral infection transmitted by Aedes mosquitoes and is characterized by sudden onset of fever, rash, and severe joint pain, which may persist for weeks or months. Early and accurate detection of CHIKV is critical, especially in regions where it co-circulates with Dengue and Zika viruses, as the clinical symptoms often overlap. The DiAGSure® kit enables reliable diagnosis during the early viremic phase, when molecular detection is most effective. It demonstrates high sensitivity and specificity, even in samples with low viral loads, and reduces the risk of misdiagnosis. The assay is a valuable tool for routine clinical diagnostics, outbreak surveillance, and timely public health response.
