A PCR test also called a polymerase chain reaction test, is used to detect the presence of chikungunya in a person's blood. The test amplifies the genetic material of the virus so that it can be detected by a laboratory.

Chikungunya is a viral disease that is typically spread through the bite of an infected mosquito. The disease can cause fever, joint pain, and rash. In some cases, it can also lead to more serious problems such as meningitis or encephalitis. A PCR test can be used to diagnose chikungunya by detecting the presence of the virus in a sample of blood or other body fluid.
