Elecsys Anti-SARS-CoV-2 is an immunoassay intended for the in vitro qualitative detection of total antibodies to Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) in human serum and Li-heparin, K2-EDTA and K3-EDTA plasma collected on or after 15 days post-symptom onset. The test is intended as an aid in identifying individuals with an adaptive immune response to SARS-CoV-2, indicating recent or prior infection.

The electrochemiluminescence immunoassay "ECLIA" is intended for use on cobas e 601 immunoassay analyzer.

Elecsys Anti-SARS-CoV-2 is a qualitative, serological, double-antigen sandwich principle immunoassay to be used on the cobas e 601 analyzer with an 18-minute test time. Results are determined automatically by the software by comparing the electrochemiluminescence signal obtained from the reaction product of the sample with the signal of the cutoff value previously obtained by calibration. The Elecsys Anti‑SARS‑CoV-2 assay uses a recombinant protein representing the nucleocapsid (N) antigen for the determination of antibodies against SARS‑CoV‑2.

The reagent working solutions include: rackpack (kit placed on the analyzer)

• M Streptavidin-coated microparticles (transparent cap), 1 bottle, 12 mL: Streptavidin-coated microparticles 0.72 mg/mL; preservative.
• R1 SARS-CoV-2-Ag~biotin, (gray cap), 1 bottle, 16 mL: Biotinylated SARS‑CoV‑2‑specific recombinant antigen (E. coli) < 0.5 mg/L; HEPES^a) buffer 50 mmol/L, pH 7.7; preservative.
• R2 SARS-CoV-2 Ag~Ru(bpy) (black cap), 1 bottle, 16 mL: SARS‑CoV‑2‑specific recombinant antigen labeled with ruthenium complex < 0.5 mg/L; HEPES^(b) buffer 50 mmol/L, pH 7.7; preservative.

^(a) HEPES = [4-(2-hydroxyethyl)-piperazine]-ethane sulfonic acid

The Elecsys Anti-SARS-CoV-2 assay includes two liquid calibrators, which are packed with the test kit:

• ACOV2 Cal1 Negative calibrator 1 (white cap), 2 bottles of 0.67 mL: Human serum, non-reactive for anti‑SARS‑CoV‑2 antibodies; buffer; preservative.
• ACOV2 Cal2 Positive calibrator 2 (black cap), 2 bottles of 0.67 mL: Human serum, reactive for anti‑SARS‑CoV‑2 antibodies; buffer; preservative.
