Validation of the developed COVID-19 NP IgG ELISA. (A) The cut-off value of the assay. Negative samples (red) and positive control (green) based on micro-neutralization assay in addition to blank (black) were utilized. The actual OD450 values for each sample are shown. Dashed lines represent the cut-off value 0.17, which was calculated as mean + (3 × standard deviation). (B) Positive samples (green) and negative control (green) based on micro-neutralization assay in addition to blank (black) were utilized. OD450 values for all positive samples were above the cut-off value. (C) correlation between ELISA results and MN titer. One-way ANOVA was applied. * indicates p value < 0.05.
