Detection of specific antibodies in saliva during dengue infection.
Journal of Clinical Microbiology 1998 December
Saliva was collected prospectively from patients presenting with suspected dengue infection 4 to 8 days after the onset of symptoms and assayed by a commercial dengue immunoglobulin M (IgM) and IgG capture enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) (PanBio Dengue Duo ELISA). Laboratory diagnosis was based on virus isolation and on hemagglutination inhibition (HAI) assay and an in-house IgM and IgG capture ELISA. With a positive result defined as either salivary IgM or IgG levels above the cutoff value, an overall sensitivity of 92% was obtained for both primary- and secondary-dengue patients (22 of 24), while no patients with non-flavivirus infections (n = 11) and no healthy laboratory donors (n = 17) showed elevation of salivary antidengue antibody (100% specificity). Salivary IgG levels correlated well with serum HAI titer (r = 0.78), and salivary IgG levels could be used to distinguish between primary- and secondary-dengue virus infections.
