SARS-CoV-2 Monoclonals
BioFront Technologies offers monoclonal antibodies with specificity for the SARS-CoV-2 spike and nucleocapsid proteins. These antibodies have been proven to be effective for Western blot, IF, and ELISA assays.Use of this test is currently limited to 'research use only' and laboratories certified to perform high complexity testing, including testing at the point-of-care when the site is covered by the laboratory's CLIA certificate for high-complexity testing Important test information:
- This test has not been reviewed by the FDA.
- Negative results do not rule out SARS-CoV-2 infection, particularly in those who have been in contact with the virus. Follow-up testing with a molecular diagnostic should be considered to rule out infection in these individuals.
- Results from antibody testing should not be used as the sole basis to diagnose or exclude SARS-CoV-2 infection or to inform infection status.
- Positive results may be due to past or present infection with non-SARS-CoV-2 coronavirus strains, such as coronavirus HKU1, NL63, OC43, or 229E.
