Analytical and Clinical Evaluation of the Automated Elecsys Anti–SARS-CoV-2 Antibody Assay on the Roche cobas e602 Analyzer

摘要

To evaluate the analytical and clinical performance of the automated Elecsys anti–severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) antibody (Elecsys Ab) assay on the Roche cobas e602 analyzer. With the ongoing global coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic, widespread and routine serologic testing of SARS-CoV-2 remains a pressing need. To better understand its epidemiologic spread and to support policies aimed at curtailing further infections, reliable serologic testing is crucial for providing insight into the dynamics of the spread of COVID-19 on a population level.
