A high-throughput Anti-SARS-CoV-2 IgG testing platform for COVID-19.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Serology tests for detecting the antibodies to severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) can identify previous infection and help to confirm the presence of current infection.

Objective

The aim of this study was to evaluate the performances of a newly developed high throughput immunoassay for anti-SARS-CoV-2 IgG antibody detection.

Results

Clinical agreement studies were performed in 107 COVID-19 patient serum samples and 226 negative donor serum/plasma samples. Positive percent agreement (PPA) was 46.15 % (95 % CI: 19.22 % ∼74.87 %), 61.54 % (95 % CI: 31.58 % ∼86.14 %), and 97.53 % (95 % CI: 91.36 % ∼99.70 %) for samples collected on 0-7 days, 8-14 days, and ≥15 days from symptom onset, respectively. Negative Percent Agreement (NPA) was
