}Dengue fever is caused by four related RNA viruses of the genus Flavivirus, dengue virus (DENV)‐1, ‐2, ‐3, and ‐4, which are transmitted to humans by mosquitoes. Although DENV is not endemic in Japan, an autochthonous dengue outbreak occurred in 2014. Several transfusion‐transmitted cases have also been reported after the use of blood and plasma products in DENV‐endemic countries. The aim of this study was to develop a novel multiplex reverse transcription–polymerase chain reaction (RT‐PCR…
