The emergence of COVID-19 has evolved into a global pandemic, causing an unprecedented public health crisis marked by unprecedented levels of morbidity never seen in the recent past. Considerable research efforts have been made in the scientific community to establish an optimal method to identify severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) infections and to understand the induced immune response. This review examined the development of serological tests during the COVID-19 pandemic, considering the factors affecting sensitivity and specificity, which are key to promote an efficient vaccination strategy for public health. The market has witnessed the introduction of various serological tests for the detection of SARS-CoV-2, such as the chemiluminescence immunoassay (CLIA), which emerged as a powerful and rapid tool to monitor the antibody response before and after vaccination or infection. Therefore, developing serological tests by studying antibody trends and persistence is essential for creating long-term strategies. Our analysis underscores the multifaceted applications of serological tests in pandemic management with a focus on the critical insights they provide into antibody dynamics that help in managing the ongoing pandemic and shaping future public health initiatives, providing a basis for optimizing the future response to viral threats. |
