The clinical linearity of the quantitative anti-S SARS-CoV-2 IgG II Quant assay was evaluated using five patient samples with elevated S-IgG values. Samples were measured at 1:2 dilutions and
We investigated anti-spike RBD IgG antibody responses in 10,000 individuals, both following infection with SARS-CoV-2 and immunization with SARS-COV-2 AstraZeneca, Sputnik V, Sinopharm, and Sinovac. The mean levels of anti-spike IgG antibodies were higher in vaccinated participants with prior COVID-19 than in individuals without prior COVID-19.
(Refer to the official instruction manual for iFlash Immunoassay Analyzer for SARS-CoV-2 IgG and IgM). The cutoff of the CLIA quantitative antibody test was 10 AU/ml. S antigen, which may induce the production of neutralizing antibodies, as well as N antigen were targets for the antibody test.

Surprisingly, with anti-SARS-CoV-2 IgG development on 100% of patients 12 days after symptoms onset, less than 90% of the same group developed IgM. As stated by the authors, within two weeks after the onset of symptoms, anti-SARS-CoV-2 antibody positivity was nearly 100% for both IgA and IgM, whereas IgG has been positive for only 60% of the
