Testul de detectare a antigenului COVID-19 este un test de imunotest pentru detectarea rapidă și calitativă a infecției cu SARS-CoV-2 de la probe tamponate. Anticorpii monoclonali anti-SARS-CoV-2 sunt acoperiți pe regiunea liniei de testare. Antigenii SARS-CoV-2, dacă sunt prezenți în eșantioane, vor interacționa cu anticorpii monoclonali antiSARS-CoV-2 conjugați cu conjugatul de aur care fac complexul antigen-anticorpi conjugat. Acest complex migrează pe membrană prin acțiune capilară, unde va fi captat de anticorpul monoclonal anti-SARS-CoV-2 acoperit pe linia de testare. O linie de test colorată ar fi vizibilă în fereastra de rezultat dacă antigenii SARS-CoV-2 sunt prezenți în specimen. Intensitatea liniei de testare colorate va varia în funcție de cantitatea de antigen SARS-CoV-2 prezent în specimen.
Îndrumări pentru utilizarea COVID-19 Ag Respi-Strip (CorisBioConcept)
ICMR a validat recent 13 truse de testare antigen COVID-19. Dintre acestea, 3 kituri au fost aprobate pentru utilizare până acum: 1. STANDARD Q COVID-19 Ag de SD Biosensor 2. COVID-19 Antigen Lateral Test Device of Lab Care Diagnostics Ltd. 3. * COVID-19 Ag Respi-Strip ( CorisBioConcept) * COVID-19 Ag Respi-Strip (Coris BioConcept) implică o metodologie diferită de testare în comparație cu celelalte două truse de testare a antigenului aprobate de ICMR până acum. Acest test nu poate fi efectuat la pat și necesită o configurare BSL-2 pentru a rula testul.
Scurtă metodologie de utilizare a COVID-19 Ag Respi-Strip (CorisBioConcept):
1. Tamponul nazofaringian și / sau orofaringian va fi colectat de la pacientul suspect COVID-19 în mediu de transport viral (VTM). 2. Tamponul colectat în VTM va fi adus la laborator în condiții corespunzătoare ale lanțului de frig. 3. Odată ce proba este adusă la laborator, va trebui manipulată într-un dulap de nivel BSL-2 pentru alicotare, punerea în tampon de liză și încărcarea benzii de testare. Etapele 1 și 2 vor fi efectuate conform practicii standard urmate pentru colectarea și transportul probelor pentru testul COVID-19 RT-PCR. Pasul 3 va trebui efectuat conform instrucțiunilor producătorilor furnizate împreună cu kitul de testare.
Description: Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), formerly known as 2019-nCoV acute respiratory disease, is an infectious disease caused by SARS-CoV-2, a virus closely related to the SARS virus (1). The disease is the cause of the 2019–20 coronavirus outbreak (2). The structure of 2019-nCoV consists of the following: a Spike protein (S), hemagglutinin-esterease dimer (HE), a membrane glycoprotein (M), an envelope protein (E) a nucleoclapid protein (N) and RNA. Coronavirus invades cells through Spike (S) glycoproteins, a class I fusion protein. It is the major viral surface protein that coronavirus uses to bind to the human cell surface receptor. It also mediates the fusion of host and viral cell membrane, allowing the virus to enter human cells and begin infection (3). The spike protein is the major target for neutralizing antibodies and vaccine development (4). The protein modeling suggests that there is strong interaction between Spike protein receptor-binding domain and its host receptor angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (ACE2), which regulate both the cross-species and human-to-human transmissions of COVID-19 (5). The recent study has shown that the SARS-CoV-2 spike protein binds ACE2 with higher affinity than SARS-CoV spike protein (6).
Description: These antibodies bind to two spike proteins (S1 & S2) on the SARS-CoV-2 virus and can detect presence of SARS-CoV-2 ELISA test COVID-19 spike protein using antibody pair ab-131-295-PAIR. Antibodies: Rabbit anti-spike protein S1 was coated at a dilution of 1/1000 in PBS for 1 hour at room temperature. After blocking, calibrator was diluted from 2000ng/ml to 15ng/m1 in blocking buffer and incubated for 1 hour on coated plate. After washing detection antibody (Chicken anti-spike protein S2 – HRP) was diluted 1/1000 in blocking buffer and incubated on the calibrator wells for 1 hour. After a final wash and tamping, the ELISA was developed by the addition of 100u1TMB to each well and stopped after 15 minutes by the addition of 0.2M sulfuric acid.
Description: A rapid test for detection of antibodies (IgG and IgM) for 2019-nCoV, the novel Coronavirus from the Wuhan strain. The test is easy to perform, takes 10 minutes to provide reliable results and is higly specific to the 2019-nCoV Coronavirus.
Novel Coronavirus COVID-19 (2019-nCoV) Real Time Multiplex RT-PCR Kit (Detection for 3 Genes )
