Dengue is an infectious disease of global health concern that continues to require surveillance. Serological testing has been used to investigate dengue-infected patients, but specificity is affected by the co-circulation of ZIKA virus (ZIKV), which shares extensive antigen similarities. The goal of this study was the development of a specific dengue virus (DENV) IgG ELISA based on a multi-epitope NS1-based antigen for antibody detection. The multi-epitope protein (T-ΔNS1), derived from a fragment of the NS1-protein of the four DENV serotypes, was expressed in and purified via affinity chromatography. The antigenicity and specificity were evaluated with sera of mice infected with DENV-1-4 or ZIKV or after immunization with the recombinant ΔNS1 proteins. The performance of the T-ΔNS1-based IgG ELISA was also determined with human serum samples. The results demonstrate that the DENV T-ΔNS1 was specifically recognized by the serum IgG of dengue-infected mice or humans but showed no or reduced reactivity with ZIKV-infected subjects. Based on the available set of clinical samples, the ELISA based on the DENV T-ΔNS1 achieved 77.42% sensitivity and 88.57% specificity. The results indicate that the T-ΔNS1 antigen is a promising candidate for the development of specific serological analysis.
