2. PURPOSE
This p rocedure descri bes the method to quantitate Ig Gantibody levels to thereceptor binding
domain (RBD) of the spike (S) protein of severe acute re spirat ory disease coronavir us 2
(SAR S-CoV-2). The assay method measures IgGantibody levels for the RBD protein in
human serum.
3.SCOPE
Personnel in Vacci ne Research & Developme nt (VRD) that perform the s ingle-plex
SARS -CoV -2RBD IgGdLIAin regulated testing are required to follow t his test method .

7.SAFETY
Biosafet y lev el 2 precautions should be taken when handling human sera. For current
guidelines refer to the CD C/NI H Biosafe ty in Microbiolo gical and Biomedic al
Laboratories Manual (BMBL), 5th Ed., 2009:
http://www.cdc.gov/biosafe ty/public ations/bmb l5/index.htm.
Personnel must be trained on current labora torysafet y procedures and made aware of the
Safety Data Shee ts (SDS) for chemicals being used, before perfo rming this procedure.
For SDS information, refer to link at
All laboratory work is to be carried ou t incompliance with Pfizer safet y policies. For
general lab oratorysafet y guidelines con sult the Pearl Riv er Environmental Health and
Safety Laboratory Manual located at:
Lab coats, safet yglasses and disposable gloves must be worn at all times when handling
human specimens .
