This five-level lyophilized product, packaged as 10 × 5 mL, has a shelf life of two years and open-vial stability of seven days when stored at 2°C to 8°C.

Study evaluates assay for dengue virus infection, 10/13

A new study, conducted by researchers at the John A. Burns School of Medicine, University of Hawaii, and published in the Journal of Microbiology, evaluated the InBios DENV Detect IgM capture ELISA for qualitative detection of IgM antibodies to dengue virus recombinant antigens. Well-characterized clinical serum samples collected from Hawaii, Vietnam, Niue, Singapore, and American Samoa were tested with the InBios ELISA in comparison with an in-house DENV IgM antibody capture (MAC) ELISA. The agreement, sensitivity, and specificity of the InBios assay were 94, 92, and 94 percent, respectively.
