ULTRASENSITIVE ELECTROCHEMICAL SENSOR PLATFORM FOR MULTIPLEXED DETECTION OF MULTIPLE ANTI-SARS-CoV-2 IgG

ABSTRACT

The COVID-19 pandemic has demonstrated the need for better understanding of the kinetics of anti-SARSCoV-2 antibody production and development of serological assays for multiple viral antigens. Electrochemical (EC) sensor platforms offer the potential to develop rapid, sensitive, point-of-care (POC) diagnostics for this type of application. Here, we describe multiplexed EC biosensors with novel antifouling properties that detect anti-SARSCoV-2 immunoglobulin G (IgG) against spike protein (S), spike receptor-binding domain (RBD), and nucleocapsid (NC) antigens. This POC assay was validated using 69 clinical blood samples and obtained 96% sensitivity and 100% specificity with area under the curve (AUC) of 0.98 for multiplexed detection of anti-SARS-CoV-2 IgG. © 2021 MicroTAS 2021 - 25th International Conference on Miniaturized Systems for Chemistry and Life Sciences.
