IgM and IgG antibodies

Both IgM and IgG are immunoglobulins produced by the immune system to provide protection against 2019-nCoV. Some patients with negative nucleic acid test results are positive for IgM, indicating that IgG/IgM detection is one of the effective methods for diagnosing 2019-nCoV.

The level of IgM antibodies begins to rise after 1 week after the initial infection, while IgG appears later than IgM (usually 14 days after infection) and can last for 6 months or even several years, which means that IgG serves as an indicator of the previous infection. Suspected patients who are infected by 2019-nCoV can be rapidly identified by simultaneous IgM and IgG monitoring. During the 2003-SARS and 2016-Zika outbreak periods, IgM/IgG antibody detection was used as one of the recommended diagnostic methods.

Advantages of IgG/IgM detection

  • Indicate both recent infections and past infections, reducing missed detection rates.
  • Low instrument requirement; suitable for primary hospitals and conventional outpatient clinics.
  • blood test; low requirements for sampling; a special virus collection tube is not required.
  • Suitable for detection combined with a nucleic acid test kit to improve the diagnosis rate of suspected patients.

Product Advantages

  • Fast detection in 10 minutes.
  • High detection efficiency: simultaneous monitoring of IgM and IgG.
  • Detection without any equipment.
  • Easy to operate, compatible with serum/whole blood/plasma.
  • Storage at room temperature.

Interpretation of results

1. IgM positive, IgG positive: Indicates that it may be a recent infection with 2019-nCoV.
2. IgM positive, IgG negative: Indicates that it may be a recent infection with 2019-nCoV.
3. IgM negative, IgG positive: Indicates that it may be a previous infection with 2019-nCoV.
4. IgM negative, IgG negative: Indicates that there may be no infection with 2019-nCoV, or that there are not enough detectable antibodies in early infection.
