Abstract

Dengue virus is an important arbovirus infection which transmitted by the Aedes female mosquitoes. The attempt to control and early detection of this infection is a global public health issue at present. Because of the clinical importance of its detection, the main focus of this review is on all of the methods that can offer the new diagnosis strategies. The advantages and disadvantages of reported methods have been discussed comprehensively from different aspects like biomarkers type, sensitivity, accuracy, rate of detection, possibility of commercialization, availability, limit of detection, linear range, simplicity, mechanism of detection, and ability of usage for clinical applications. The optical, electrochemical, microfluidic, enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA), and smartphone-based biosensors are the main approaches which developed for detection of different biomarkers and serotypes of Dengue virus. Future efforts in miniaturization of these methods open the horizons for development of commercial biosensors for early-diagnosis of Dengue virus infection.
