The Antibody, also known as immunoglobulin, is a Y-shaped protein used by the immune system to identify foreign objects such as pathogenic bacteria and viruses.

 

Due to different function, the antibody divided into several isotype: IgA, IgD, IgE, IgG and IgM, in which IgG and IgM are the uppermost antibody invading pathogens. To target at these two isotypes in the COVID-19 antibody test leads to a comparably reliable testing result.

 

Antibody test can be used in hospital and healthcare center to recognize and follow the patients who are in the middle of recovering process, assisting to make a more accurate treatment strategy. Additionally, the antibody test is playing an important role during the infectiousness research.
