This technology includes isolates of the Dengue Virus (type 2) which can be used to develop diagnostic tests, antivirals and vaccinations. These isolates are from Puerto Rico DENV-2 and have complete whole genome sequencing completed. Additionally, these isolates represent current stains of Dengue Virus which are circulating in the Caribbean.

Commercial Applications
Isolates can be used to development diagnostic tests, vaccinations, and antiviral therapies for Dengue Virus.

Competitive Advantages
Representative of current strains circulating among the population.
