Abstract

Background and Objectives: In this study, the performance of three different commercial antibody assays for COVID-19 was examined and parameters affecting the antibody response were investigated. The correlation of patients' chest CT results, procalcitonin, CRP, and D-dimer levels with the antibody response were retrospectively evaluated.
