Two serological approaches for detection of antibodies to SARS-CoV-2 in different scenarios: A screening tool and a point-of-care test 2020-08-11 .txt text/plain 2407 136 52 Two serological tools based on a Double Recognition assay (Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent Assay, DR-ELISA and Lateral Flow Assay, DR-LFA) to detect total antibodies to SARS-CoV-2, have been developed based on the recombinant nucleocapsid protein. Therefore, the aim of the present work was the development of serological tools to determine the presence of antibodies against SARS-CoV-2 in the population, as an indicator of an ongoing or previous infection. In the current study, a Double Recognition Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent Assay (DR-ELISA) was developed to determine the presence of immunoglobulins of different classes (IgG, IgM and IgA) to SARS-CoV-2 in human serum, to support the diagnosis of COVID-19. In the present study, we developed two serological assays using the recombinant N protein Table 1, a group of 14 serum samples from early days post infection, positive to COVID-19 by respiratory-PCR yet still negative in the commercial serological assay (with seroconversion a few days later) were also tested in our assays. ./cache/cord-331277-fjsuo3yy.txt ./txt/cord-331277-fjsuo3yy.txt
