SARS-CoV-2 (Spike) Antibody, Quantitative (Coviprotect)

This test measures the quantity of antibodies specifically targeting the Spike Protein of the SARS-CoV-2 virus in your bloodstream. The presence and concentration of these antibodies help determine your immune response to COVID-19.

The main purposes of this test are to:

• Evaluate your antibody levels post-vaccination or post-infection
• Monitor your immune response to COVID-19
• Assess vaccine effectiveness
• Determine if you have had a prior infection or need vaccination

Your doctor may recommend this test if you:

• Have completed vaccination and want to check your antibody response
• Need to confirm prior infection and assess immunity
• Are at risk due to exposure or contact with COVID-19 positive individuals

The test provides quantitative results, indicating the antibody titres against the Spike Protein in your blood. If your antibody levels are within the expected range, it suggests an appropriate immune response. Abnormal results can indicate insufficient immunity or waning antibody levels, but interpretation should be discussed with your doctor.

When you take this test:

• A small sample of blood will be drawn from your arm
• The sample will be processed in the laboratory using CLIA method
• Results will be reported the next day, usually by 5:00 pm

To prepare for this test:

• No fasting or dietary restrictions are necessary
• Ensure you provide accurate information on the specimen type and clinical history
• Follow any additional instructions provided by your healthcare provider or the testing facility

Additional tests that may be recommended include:

• RT-PCR Test: To detect active COVID-19 infection by detecting viral genetic material
• CT Scan or Chest X-ray: To evaluate lung involvement
• Complete Blood Count (CBC): To assess overall health and detect any abnormalities
