Introduction | Japanese encephalitis virus (JEV) is a positive-stranded ssRNA virus in the Flavivirus genus; close relatives include the Dengue, West Nile, Yellow Fever, and Zika viruses. In around 99.5% of infections, the symptoms are either mild or non-existent. In rare cases, the virus can spread to the brain, causing muscle weakness, intellectual disability, and deafness (alongside the generic symptoms of viral infection). The disease is spread to humans by mosquitos with domestic animals (typically pigs) providing a reservoir; human-human transmission has not been documented. The disease is prevented using a vaccine and mosquito control methods. Treatment consists of supportive care. |
Target | Japanese Encephalitis IgM (JE-IgM) |
Reactivity | Human |
Tested Applications | ELISA |
Recommended dilutions | Optimal dilutions/concentrations should be determined by the end user. |
Storage | Shipped at 4 °C. Upon receipt, store the kit according to the storage instruction in the kit's manual. |
Validity | The validity for this kit is 6 months. |
Stability | The stability of the kit is determined by the rate of activity loss. The loss rate is less than 5% within the expiration date under appropriate storage conditions. To minimize performance fluctuations, operation procedures and lab conditions should be strictly controlled. It is also strongly suggested that the whole assay is performed by the same user throughout. |

Note | This product is for research use only. The range and sensitivity is subject to change. Please contact us for the latest product information. For accurate results, sample concentrations must be diluted to mid-range of the kit. If you require a specific range, please contact us in advance or write your request in your order comments. Please note that our ELISA and CLIA kits are optimised for detection of native samples, rather than recombinant proteins. We are unable to guarantee detection of recombinant proteins, as they may have different sequences or tertiary structures to the native protein. |
