Article Synopsis
- This study investigated the persistence of SARS-CoV-2-specific antibodies in 43 adults and 34 children about 12 weeks post-COVID-19 symptoms using six different serological assays.
- The Roche Elecsys total antibody test showed the best sensitivity rates (over 90%) compared to other tests, while five IgG-targeting assays showed similar performance between adults and children.
- Higher antibody levels were found in males and pneumonia patients, indicating the need for further research on how antibody persistence could impact potential re-infections.
