Approach to non-invasive sampling in dengue diagnostics: Exploring virus and NS1 antigen detection in saliva and urine of travelers with dengue

Highlights • 137 serum, urine and saliva samples were collected from 14 travelers. • DENV NS1 and RNA were detected from both urine and saliva. • Prolonged excretion of DENV RNA in urine allows later phase molecular diagnostics. • Concentration of urine did not affect to the detection of DENV RNA in...
