[HTML][HTML] A serological assay to detect SARS-CoV-2 seroconversion in humans
Nature medicine, 2020•nature.com
Here, we describe a serological enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay for the screening and
identification of human SARS-CoV-2 seroconverters. This assay does not require the
handling of infectious virus, can be adjusted to detect different antibody types in serum and
plasma and is amenable to scaling. Serological assays are of critical importance to help
define previous exposure to SARS-CoV-2 in populations, identify highly reactive human
donors for convalescent plasma therapy and investigate correlates of protection.
