The COVID-19 antibody test is for individuals who think they have antibodies (from a previous COVID-19 infection and/or vaccine) but who do not currently have symptoms. It is a finger-prick blood test.
COVID 19 is caused by a new coronavirus , SARS-CoV-2, which is highly infectious and can cause a wide spectrum of symptoms and affect multiple human systems. What we have learned from other...
The presentation will provide a review of major emerging zoonotic virus outbreaks from Hendra virus in 1994 in Australia to SARS-CoV-2 in China 2019 and our latest findings on bat biology an...
Learning Objectives: 1. Define SARS-CoV-2 immunity, antibody testing, and discuss what is known about the meaning of these tests 2. Identify challenges in doing research during social distan...
Antibody tests are important tools to assess the efficacy of vaccine candidates and to derive suitable vaccination modalities. High specificity and sensitivity are of great importance for th...
Today's presentation will cover the following topics from the perspective of a NYC based Laboratory: What have we learned year to date about CoV-2 and specifically how diagnostic testing...

Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) is the cause of Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) and responsible for the current pandemic. Here, we present an in-depth study...
Therapeutic antibody can provide key protection or lifesaving treatment for those who haven't been or can’t be vaccinated, or when vaccines don’t “take". We galvan...

Over the last several decades, antibodies (Abs) have become a valuable weapon in the fight against viral infections, with several studies demonstrating the importance of both neutralizing an...
While the frequency of pandemic threats seems to be increasing, we fortunately have new tools and technologies to make vaccines with more precision and speed and that support a more proactiv...
Seasonal and pandemic influenza virus infections can cause significant disease worldwide. Current vaccines only provide limited, short-lived protection, and antigenic drift/shift in the hema...
