ABSTRACT
Accurate and rapid evaluation of SARS-CoV-2 half-maximal neutralizing antibody (nAb) titer (NT50) is an important research tool for measuring nAb responses after prophylaxis or therapeutics for COVID-19 prevention and management. Compared with ACE2-competitive enzyme immunoassays for nAb detection, pseudovirus assays remain low-throughput and labor intensive. A novel application of the Bio-Rad Bio-Plex Pro Human SARS-CoV-2 D614G S1 Variant nAb Assay was used to determine NT50 from COVID-19-vaccinated individuals and showed strong correlation to a laboratory-developed SARS-CoV-2 pseudovirus nAb assay. The Bio-Plex nAb assay could provide a rapid, high-throughput, culture-free method for NT50 determination in sera.
