Abstract
We evaluated newly developed surrogate virus neutralization tests (sVNT) for detecting neutralizing antibodies (NAbs) against the receptor binding domain of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2). VERI-Q SARS-CoV-2 Neutralizing Antibody Detection ELISA Kit (MiCo BioMed, Gyeonggi-do, Republic of Korea, hereafter, “eCoV-CN”) is an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay-based sVNT, and VERI-Q SARS-CoV-2 Neutralizing Antibody Rapid Test Kit (MiCo BioMed, hereafter, “rCoV-RN”) is a point-of-care lateral-flow immunochromatography test with auto-scanner. A total of 411 serum samples were evaluated. Both evaluations used a 50% plaque reduction neutralization test (PRNT50) as the gold standard. Compared with PRNT50, the eCoV-CN showed 98.7% positive percent agreement (PPA), 96.8% negative percent agreement (NPA), 97.4% total percent agreement (TPA), with kappa values of 0.942. The rCoV-RN showed 98.7% PPA, 97.4% NPA, 97.8% TPA, and kappa values of 0.951, comparing to PRNT50. Neither assay indicated cross-reactivity for other pathogens, and the signal indexes were statistically significantly correlated to the PRNT50 titer. The two evaluated sVNTs show comparable performances to the PRNT50 with the advantages of technical simplicity, speed, and do not require cell culture facilities.
