Laboratory Testing for Mosquito-Borne Infections
Mosquito-borne diseases are infections transmitted through the bite of an infected mosquito. They occur in many tropical and subtropical regions, including Southeast Asia.
Laboratory testing may support the investigation of suspected mosquito-borne infections and provide useful information alongside clinical assessment and other relevant findings.
Andalab Medical Laboratories provides laboratory investigations related to selected mosquito-borne diseases, including dengue, chikungunya and malaria.
Mosquito-Borne Diseases We Investigate
Dengue
Dengue is a viral infection transmitted by infected mosquitoes and is found in many tropical and subtropical regions. Laboratory testing may support the investigation of suspected dengue infection.
Chikungunya
Chikungunya is a mosquito-borne viral infection that occurs in parts of Asia and other tropical regions. Laboratory investigations may be used as part of its assessment.
Malaria
Malaria is a parasitic infection transmitted by infected mosquitoes. Laboratory testing plays an important role in investigating suspected malaria infection.
Other Mosquito-Borne Infections
Laboratory investigations related to other mosquito-borne infections may also be available, depending on the individual circumstances and laboratory requirements.
The Role of Laboratory Testing
Laboratory testing can provide important information when investigating mosquito-borne infections.
Different laboratory methods may be used depending on the infection being investigated, the timing of symptoms or exposure, and the relevant clinical information.
Laboratory results should be considered together with the person’s symptoms, medical history and other findings. In some situations, further assessment or additional laboratory investigation may be required.
If you are acutely unwell or have severe or worsening symptoms, seek appropriate medical care rather than relying on laboratory testing alone.
