NS1 antigen test (nonstructural protein 1) is a test for dengue, introduced in 2006. It allows rapid detection on the first day of fever, before antibodies appear some 5 or more days later.[1] It has been adopted for use in some 40 nations. The method of detection is through enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay.[1][2] India has introduced in 2010 the NS1 test costing 1,600 rupees at a private hospital in Mumbai.[2]
