Abstract:

Objective To evaluate the formation of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2(SARS-CoV-2) IgM,IgG and neutralizing antibodies of the adult population who injected with the vaccine of SARS-CoV-2. Methods A total of 80 adults who received the vaccine of SARS-CoV-2(vaccination group) were enrolled,and the serum levels of SARS-CoV-2 IgM,IgG and neutralizing antibodies were determined within 7 d and 14 d after the completion of vaccination. Totally,80 healthy adults who did not receive the vaccine of SARS-CoV-2 were enrolled as control group. They were classified according to age and sex. Results On the 14th day after the completion of vaccination,the positive rate of SARS-CoV-2 IgM,IgG and neutralizing antibodies of vaccination group were 37.5%,98.8% and 95.0%,respectively. The false-positive rate of IgM or IgG antibody was 3.8%,and the false-positive rate of neutralizing antibody was 8.8%. The positive rate of SARS-CoV-2 neutralizing antibody in males was higher than that in females(P<0.05). There was no statistical significance in the positive rates of the 3 antibodies between those aged 20 to 39 and those aged 40 to 60 in vaccination group(P>0.05). The serum SARS-CoV-2 IgG antibody level on the 14th day of vaccination was higher than that within 7 d of vaccination(P=0.007). There was no statistical significance in serum SARS-CoV-2 IgM and neutralizing antibody levels at the 2 time points(P>0.05). The positive rates of serum SARS-CoV-2 IgG and neutralizing antibodies within 7 d of vaccination were lower than those on the 14th day(P<0.01). There was no statistical significance between the 2 time points of SARS-CoV-2 IgM antibody(P>0.05). Conclusions For 2 weeks after adults who completed the SARS-CoV-2 vaccination,the positive rate of SARS-CoV-2 IgG antibody reaches 95.0%,and that of neutralizing antibody reaches 86.2%.
