recomLine SARS-CoV-2 IgG [Avidity]

Line immunoassay for the detection of IgG antibodies
against the coronavirus SARS-CoV-2 in human serum or plasma.

In commercial screening tests for antibody detection, the nucleocapsid protein (NP) and/or the spike protein (S) or corresponding subunits are usually used as immunodominant antigens. The Mikrogen recomLine SARS-CoV-2 IgG [avidity] line immunoassay combines these diagnostic markers and allows the identification of specific antibodies against the individual antigens. In addition, reactivities against the seasonal coronaviruses (HCoV) are detected.

 

The test allows the assessment of the adaptive humoral immune response to SARS-CoV-2 after infection and/or vaccination. An added benfit is, this test system determines the quality of the antibodies when avidity measurement is used.

Advantages

  • Antibodies against SARS-CoV-2 after survived infection and/or vaccination.
  • Avidity determination of SARS-CoV-2 specific IgG antibodies provides additional information about the quality of the antibodies
  • Additional information by detection of antibodies against seasonal coronavirus (HCoV)
  • Suitability as screening and confirmatory test for the detection of IgG
  • Easy and clear interpretation due to easy-to-read banding
  • Partial and full automation, software-based evaluation (recomScan) and integration with laboratory information system possible
  • Highest sensitivity and specificity due to the use of different, recombinant SARS-CoV-2 specific antigens:
PathogenAntigenDescription
SARS-CoV-2NPNucleocapsid - antigen with the strongest immunogenicity among the coronaviruses. As a structural protein, it primarily serves to package viral genetic information and also fulfills regulatory functions.
SARS-CoV-2RBDUnits of the spike surface protein - main target antigen for neurtralizing antibodies. It S1 subunits with integrated receptor binding domain (RBD) is responsible for binding to the host cell.
SARS-CoV-2S1
Seasonal coronaviruses HCoV (229E, NL63, OC43, HKU1)NPNucleocapsid - analogous to them nucleocapsid of SARS-CoV-2, of seasonal human pathogenic α- and β-coronaviruses (229E, NL63 and OC43, HKU1, respectively).
