Esoteric Testing

Dr Dangs Lab’s niche capability is to offer Central Lab services for esoteric tests.
As medicine evolves, lab testing remains crucial for advancing disease understanding and improving public health. Our capabilities include vaccine immunology, sero-epidemiology, and sero-surveillance testing, all essential for developing effective interventions to prevent and control infectious diseases.

Vaccine Immunology lab testing:

This test plays a crucial role in ensuring the safety and effectiveness of vaccines before they are approved for human use. This involves evaluating the immune response to the vaccine, including the production of antibodies and activation of immune cells.

Sero-epidemiology for lab testing:

Seroepidemiology lab testing is vital for understanding disease epidemiology and developing public health interventions. It measures antibodies in blood samples from populations, analyzing disease prevalence and virus transmission dynamics to guide public health measures.

Vaccine Immunology:

Applications:

Antibody Titer Measurement: A key aspect of vaccine immunology testing is measuring antibody levels before and after vaccination during trials. This evaluates the vaccine's effectiveness by assessing the increase in antibody titers.
Cell-Mediated Immunity Evaluation: Another crucial aspect is assessing the activation of immune cells, like T cells and B cells. Measuring their response to the vaccine determines its effectiveness in stimulating the immune system.
