FluoroSpot Path: SARS‑CoV‑2 (Spike​+​RBD) Human IgG

Human PBMC from a COVID-19 convalescent individual were incubated with R848+IL-2 (stimulates memory B cells) in tubes for three days. Cells were then extensively washed and added to an FluoroSpot plate (250,000 cells/well) coated with anti-human IgG mAbs. Spike-specific IgG spots were detected with Spike-GAL, i.e., recombinant Spike protein with a GAL peptide tag, followed by anti-GAL-490. RBD-specific spots were detected with RBD-WASP, i.e., recombinant Receptor Binding Domain protein with a WASP peptide t

FluoroSpot Path: SARS‑CoV‑2 (Spike​+​RBD) Human IgG

Components

PlatePre-coated FluoroSpot plate (mAbs MT91/145)
Detection mAbAnti-IgG mAbs (MT78/145), 550
AntigensSpike-GAL
RBD-WASP
Fluorophore conjugatesAnti-WASP mAb, 640
Anti-GAL mAb, 490
Buffers/SolutionsFluoroSpot enhancer
Reconstitution buffer
StimuliR848
Recombinant human IL-2

Intended use

This FluoroSpot Path kit is intended for the enumeration of B cells secreting human IgG in response to SARS-CoV-2 (Spike and RBD) using the FluoroSpot assay. B cells secreting IgG irrespective of antigen specificity (total IgG) can also be enumerated. For research use only. Not for use in diagnostic procedures.

Serum/Plasma samples

For memory B cells, we recommend pre-stimulation with R848 and recombinant human IL-2 (both included).
