With the start of the mosquito season in many tropical countries it appears that Dengue Fever is becoming prevalent throughout the Middle East, Malaysia, and Southeast Asia. Dengue Fever comes in 4 forms. In the mildest form it can incapacitate an individual for up to 6 months. In the worst form the individual dies within days through massive hemorrhaging. The only treatment is fluid replacement therapy which must be started immediately. Standard laboratories take a minimum of three (3) days to as long as twenty-one (21) days to complete the testing. Very few laboratories are even capable of doing the testing for Dengue Fever.

The orders are now picking up," shared Pankaj Sohaney, Manager Marketing and business development.
