The Dengue virus is the main arbovirus that affects man in terms of morbidity and mortality. The detection of the virus is very important for epidemiological surveillance, so here we propose to standardize and compare the immunodot blot (IDB) and multiplex reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction (MRT- PCR) techniques to detect and characterize the dengue virus (DENV) serotypes in samples of Aedes aegypti larvae. Thus, the IDB and MRT- PCR techniques were standardized using macerated samples of larvae collected in nature. The use of monoclonal antibodies in IDB has not shown great results, but DENV detection through this method was possible using polyclonal antibodies. The distinction of serotypes 1, 2 and 3 was carried out by M-RTPCR. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
