Description
SARS-CoV-2 IgG Detection Kit (Colorimetric Anti-Spike RBD IgG detection) | 79985 | Gentaur US, UK & Europe Disrtribition
Category: Coronavirus/Assay Kit
Application: This kit is useful for detection of anti SARS-CoV-2 Spike RBD IgG in human serum
Background: The pandemic coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is caused by Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2). As a first step of the viral replication strategy, the virus attaches to the host cell surface before entering the cell. The Spike protein recognizes and binds to the Angiotensin-Converting Enzyme 2 (ACE2) receptor found on the surface of type I and II pneumocytes, endothelial cells, and ciliated bronchial epithelial cells. Drugs targeting the interaction between the Spike protein of SARS-CoV-2 and ACE2 may offer some protection against the viral infection.
Description: The SARS-CoV-2 IgG detection kit is designed for qualitative detection of human IgG antibodies in serum collected from individuals suspected of prior infection with the virus that causes COVID-19. This fast and simple ELISA uses the receptor binding domain (RBD) of the SARS-CoV-2 Spike protein (BPS Bioscience #100696) to identify IgG antibodies that indicate a previous infection with SARS-CoV-2.
