Operational forensic laboratories routinely perform immunological assays for detecting various body fluids. The ABAcard® p30 and HemaTrace® immunochromatographic tests from Abacus Diagnostics are used for detecting the p30 enzyme in human semen and human haemoglobin present in blood respectively. In early 2023, manufacturer modifications to the ABAcard® p30 and HemaTrace® tests resulted in a reduction in card size and volume of sample extract used in the recommended protocol.

Background: Rapid and accurate diagnosis of individuals with SARS-CoV-2 infection is an effective way to prevent and control the spread of COVID-19. Although the detection of SARS-CoV-2 viral RNA by RT-qPCR is the gold standard for COVID-19 testing, the use of antigen-detecting rapid diagnostic tests (Ag-RDTs) is emerging as a complementary surveillance tool as Omicron case numbers skyrocket worldwide. However, the results from Ag-RDTs are less accurate in individuals with low viral loads.

Background: The Abbott SARS-CoV-2 IgG Quant II assay and the Roche Elecsys double antigen sandwich (DAgS) immunoassay measure SARS-CoV-2 receptor binding domain (RBD)-specific antibodies in serum samples in different ways. The IgG Quant II assay uses an antigen in combination with a secondary antibody and the DAgS assay uses two antigens. The aim of the study was to investigate whether the assays give comparable results with monoclonal antibodies.
