Arbor Diagnostics reports launch of Roche's COVID-19 antibody test across the US
27 May 2020 -

Pathology company Arbor Diagnostics Tuesday announced the availability of Roche's SARS-CoV-2 Total Antibody Serology test to medical practice providers across the country.

Arbor Diagnostics is reportedly the first to offer Roche's ground-breaking technology to local healthcare providers in North Texas as well as the seventh in the country to partner with Roche.

On 3 May 2020, the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) issued an Emergency Use Authorization (EUA) for the Roche Elecsys Anti-SARS-CoV-2 assay. The Elecsys Anti-SARS-CoV-2 is an immunoassay for the in-vitro qualitative detection of antibodies (including IgG) to Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) in human serum and plasma. The Elecsys Anti-SARS-CoV-2 assay has 99.81% specificity and shows no cross-reactivity to the four human coronaviruses causing the common cold.
