Peroxidase anti hamster igg h l

Serum samples from SARS-CoV-2 infected animals were inactivated by γ-irradiation and used in BSL2 according to IBC-approved SOPs. NUNC Maxisorp Immuno plates were coated with 50 μl of 1 μg/mL of recombinant SARS-CoV-2 S (S1+S2), SARS-CoV-2 RBD (Sino Biological) or EBOV GP at 4°C overnight and then washed three times with PBS containing 0.05% Tween 20 (PBST). The plates were blocked with 3% skim milk in PBS for 3 hours at room temperature, followed by three additional washes with PBST. The plates were incubated with 50 μl of serial dilutions of the samples in PBS containing 1% skim milk for 1 hour at room temperature. After three washes with PBST, the bound antibodies were labeled using 50 μl of 1:2,500 peroxidase anti-hamster IgG (H+L) (SeraCare Life Sciences) diluted in 1% skim milk in PBST. After incubation for 1 h at room temperature and three washes with PBST, 50 μl of KPL ABTS peroxidase substrate solution mix (SeraCare Life Sciences) was added to each well, and the mixture was incubated for 30 min at room temperature. The optical density (OD) at 405 nm was measured using a GloMax® explorer (Promega) plate reader. The OD values were normalized to the baseline samples obtained with naïve hamster serum and the cutoff value was set as the mean OD plus standard deviation of the blank.
