According to the Pan American Health Organization (PAHO)<\/a>, to date, the number of dengue cases in Latin America and Brazil has not exceeded the figures recorded during the same period in 2024. However, considering last year\u2019s record increase, countries in the region begin 2025 on alert for the possibility of a new outbreak.<\/p>

Factors such as climate change, uncontrolled urbanization, and improper waste management continue to drive the proliferation of the Aedes aegypti mosquito, the disease vector. In this context, services performing the test must prepare for a potential increase in demand for these analyses.<\/p>

Correct identification of dengue cases and differentiation of serotypes are crucial for effective diagnosis, considering the disease\u2019s varied manifestations, ranging from asymptomatic to severe, with a risk of death. Therefore, analytical quality in tests is essential to avoid errors that could compromise medical decisions.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

In light of the potential high demand for dengue tests, services must ensure the reliability of analytical processes to issue secure reports. Controllab<\/a>, a leader in laboratory quality control in Latin America, offers comprehensive solutions for various dengue detection methodologies, such as serologies (IgG, IgM, NS1 Antigen), molecular biology, and POCT (Point-of-Care Testing).<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

For the Proficiency Testing (EP)<\/a>, also known as External Quality Control (EQC), in the Dengue \u2013 Molecular Biology<\/a> program, participants identify the serotype through genotyping. The PT Sequencing: Viral Genome Detection<\/a> sends alternating samples of epidemiologically relevant viruses, including the dengue serotypes.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

In addition to External Control<\/a>, the reliability of diagnostic routines depends on continuous monitoring with Internal Control (CI)<\/a> of quality.<\/p>

Controllab provides third-party internal controls that make a difference. These materials identify variations that may be overlooked by manufacturers of analytical systems, offering more reliable analysis. These controls typically include interlaboratory results from different systems and faithfully reproduce the performance of patient samples.<\/p>
