This research focuses on analyzing the dynamics of neutralizing antibody (nAbs) titers against type 5 adenovirus (Ad5) in the adult population of Russia following vaccination against the novel coronavirus infection with recombinant adenovirus type-5 COVID-19 vaccine (CanSino Biologics, China). The impact of the Ad5 vector on nAb titers was investigated using 302 blood serum samples from individuals who received a single dose of the Ad5-nCoV vector vaccine. The research revealed that 33.

The specific activities of the new monoclonal antibodies, with respect to various adenovirus types, were studied by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay, indirect immunofluorescence, and western blot analysis. The data demonstrate the potential of the monoclonal antibodies developed, namely 4B7 and 6B12, for use in the development of modern diagnostic assays.
