Japanese Encephalitis(JE)
Japanese encephalitis virus (JEV) is a Culex mosquito-borne, zoonotic flavivirus causing encephalitis in humans and reproductive disorders such as abortion and stillbirth in swine. The virus in endemic areas is persisting in nature through a cycle of transmission involving mosquitoes, domestic and wild birds, domestic pigs, and humans. Swine is the main natural a mplifier and reservoir of JEV. World Health Organization recommends having a strong prevention and control program in all regions where the disease is a public health concern, utilizing efficient surveillance tools and reporting mechanisms (WHO Fact Sheet No 386, 2015).
This test kit as a surveillance tool was designed to detect JEV-specific antibodies in swine serum as an evidence of infection or vaccination.
