Additional Technical Information
Ordering Recommendation

Use for the detection of IgG antibodies against the spike protein (S1) of SARS-CoV-2 (COVID-19) to evaluate exposure. To reduce the likelihood of a false-positive result, the CDC Interim Guidelines for COVID-19 Antibody Testing suggest using an orthogonal testing algorithm so that individuals positive by one antibody test are retested with a second antibody test (refer to COVID-19 IgG, Qualitative by CIA 3002776).
