INTENDED USE
The Chikungunya Real Time RT-PCR Kit is an in vitro nucleic acid
amplification test for qualitative detection of Chikungunya virus RNA
in the biological material (swab, blood plasma, serum, urine) using
real-time hybridization-fluorescence detection of amplified products.
The PCR kit is used for studying the biological material, taken from the
persons suspected of Chikungunya infection without distinction of form
and presence of manifestation.
SUMMARY
Chikungunya virus (CHIKV) is a mosquito-borne virus (arbovirus)
first
found during an outbreak in south Tanzania in 1952. Its
transmission route comes mainly from infected mosquitos of the Aedes
genus, in particular Ae. aegypti and Ae. Albopictus, even if perinatal
vertical transmission has been described as well. Since 1952, CHIKV
caused numerous outbreaks and epidemics in Africa, Asia, Europe, the
South Pacific and Americas, involving millions of people, and often
separated by periods of more than 10 years.
After the bite of an infected mosquito, symptoms of disease occurs
usually between 4 and 8 days but can range from 2 to 12 days.
Chikungunya infection is characterised by an abrupt beginning of chills,
fever reaching up to 40 °C, vomiting, nausea, headache, arthralgia
(joint pain), and in some cases, maculopapular rash. Severe joint and
muscular pain is also observed and is the main and the most
problematic symptom of chikungunya disease. The pain is so intense
that makes movement very difficult and prostrates the patients.
Laboratory diagnosis is generally made by testing serum or plasma
to detect virus, viral nucleic acid, or virus-specific immunoglobulin (Ig)
M and neutralizing antibodies. Viral culture may detect virus in the first
3 days of disease; however, chikungunya virus should be handled under
biosafety level (BSL) 3 conditions. During the first 8 days of disease,
chikungunya viral RNA can often be identified in serum. Chikungunya
virus antibodies normally develop towards the end of the first week of
disease.
Therefore, to definitively rule out the diagnosis,
convalescent-phase samples should be obtained from patients whose
acute-phase samples test negative.
Because of cross-reactivity of Chikungunya antibodies with other
arbovirus, the use of serology is limited and controversial, so the Real
Time RT-PCR is a better detection method.
