Assessing Functional SARS-CoV-2 Neutralizing Antibodies
Published: February 29, 2024
Abstract
This video showcases a neutralization assay measuring serum efficacy in neutralizing SARS-CoV-2 viruses. It involves pseudotyped viruses, serum dilution, and luminescence-based quantification, revealing the neutralization titer.
Protocol
All procedures involving sample collection have been performed in accordance with the institute's IRB guidelines. 1. Pseudotype-based neutralization assay NOTE: pMN is the Inhibition of pseudotype virus (PV) mediated transduction via human convalescent serum samples that contain antibodies directed against the SARS-CoV-2 Spike. In a 96-well white plate with the aid of a multichannel pipette, add 50 µl …
