Commercial Laboratory Zika Tests + Outreach Materials

Serologic and PCR testing for Zika virus is now available at several commercial laboratories.  Please follow CDC guidance for determining patients who have been potentially exposed to Zika.  Patients who are Zika PCR negative may be testing positive for Zika virus IgM antibodies.  Commercial laboratory IgM tests may not differentiate between Zika and other Flavivirus infections (Dengue, West Nile, Yellow Fever, etc.). Therefore, commercial Zika IgM results should be confirmed at the MDHHS Bureau of Laboratories.  ​
