Please note that the name of the virus is SARS CoV-2, while the name of the disease is Covid-19.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span lang=\"EN-US\">An antibody test looks for the antibodies that an individual has generated as a reaction to foreign antigens, i.e. deriving from viruses, bacteria, etc.\u00a0In this particular case, the test investigates whether the patient has come in contact with SARS CoV-2.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span lang=\"EN-US\">It is fundamental for a test that evaluates the presence of antibodies to have a high <strong>SPECIFICITY<\/strong><span><b>\u00a0<\/b><\/span>and no reactivity towards other types of Coronavirus, with the aim of detecting the presence of Covid-19 antibodies with a high degree of certainty.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span lang=\"EN-US\">Furthermore, the test also needs to guarantee the highest degree of <strong>SENSITIVITY<\/strong> in order not to detect false negatives.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<ul>\r\n\t<li>\r\n<p><strong><span lang=\"EN-US\">Why take the Covid-19 test?<\/span><\/strong><span lang=\"EN-US\"><\/span><\/p>\r\n<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n<p><span lang=\"EN-US\">To determine whether the patient has come in contact with the SARS CoV-2 virus.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<ul>\r\n\t<li>\r\n<p><strong><span lang=\"EN-US\">What method does our laboratory use?<\/span><\/strong><span lang=\"EN-US\"><\/span><\/p>\r\n<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n<p><span lang=\"EN-US\">The Dr. Giovanni Di Piazza Medical Testing Laboratory uses a reagent produced by Roche, which guarantees the highest levels of specificity and sensitivity in the tests.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span lang=\"EN-US\">Thanks to chemiluminescence, a technique also known as ECL, this reagent detects the presence of immunoglobulins in the blood serum of the patient with a single test (IgG, IgM and IgA).
