Result Interpretation

    Instrument (Assay)       Methodology   Anti-SARS-CoV-2 Antibody Interpretation
Roche 801 (Elecsys Anti-SARS-CoV-2 S) Electrochemiluminescence immunoassay < 0.80 U/mL : Negative for anti‑SARS‑CoV‑2‑S
≥ 0.80 U/mL : Positive for anti‑SARS‑CoV‑2‑S

The Roche Elecsys Anti‑SARS‑CoV‑2 S has been approved by the FDA for Emergency Use Authorization only. It has been validated to be accurate by Northwell Health Laboratories.

Positive results indicate that antibodies against SARS-CoV-2 were detected in your blood either from previous infection with SARS-CoV-2 virus and/or COVID-19 vaccination. Presence of antibodies to SARS‑CoV‑2 may not guarantee protection from SARS-CoV-2 reinfection.

Negative results do not preclude SARS‑CoV‑2 infection and should not be used as the sole basis for patient management decisions. A negative result can occur if the quantity of the anti‑SARS‑CoV‑2 antibodies is below the detection limits of the assay, or the antibodies that are detected are not present during the stage of disease in which a sample is collected. Follow-up testing with a molecular diagnostic tets should be considered to rule out infection in these individuals.
