What is the Dengue Profile Test?

The dengue profile card test checks one blood sample for three markers at once: the NS1 viral protein and the IgM and IgG antibodies against dengue. Together they show whether dengue is likely and whether the infection is early, recent or a repeat infection. It is a rapid screening test.

What your Dengue Profile Test result means

NS1 positive
Suggests early, current dengue infection, usually within the first five days.
IgM positive
Suggests recent dengue infection, usually from day 4 to 5 of illness onward.
IgG positive
Shows past dengue exposure. IgG positive with NS1 or IgM positive can point to a repeat (secondary) infection, which needs closer watching.
All negative
Dengue markers were not found. Testing very early or very late can miss them, so the doctor may repeat the test if symptoms continue.

One result is not a diagnosis. A doctor reads it with your symptoms, history, medicines and other tests.

Why is the Dengue Profile Test done?

  • Fever where the day of illness is uncertain, so both antigen and antibody are checked

Frequently asked questions

What does IgG positive and IgM negative mean in dengue?
It usually means a dengue infection in the past rather than a current one. If there is fever now and NS1 is also negative, the current fever is probably due to something else, but the doctor will decide with the full picture.
Is the dengue card test confirmatory?
No. It is a rapid screening test. ELISA NS1 or ELISA IgM is used to confirm dengue, and a doctor reads any result with the symptoms and blood counts.
Which is better, NS1 alone or the dengue profile?
In the first five days NS1 alone is often enough. When the fever has lasted longer or the timing is unclear, a profile that also checks IgM and IgG gives more information.
Why is a second dengue infection more serious?
A repeat infection with a different dengue type carries a higher risk of severe dengue. That is why IgG positive along with NS1 or IgM positive is watched more closely.
