Description

Counting who has had COVID, including mild cases never tested, takes blood tests that find antibodies. Gulnur Nakhanova and co-authors built such a test in 2025 around a fused protein, called SM, that joins parts of the virus. They produced the protein in bacteria, purified it, and built an enzyme-linked test that they checked against panels of known positive and negative blood samples, including some drawn before the pandemic.

The test caught about ninety percent of true positives and cleared about ninety-four percent of negatives, with a strong overall accuracy score. The authors present their home-grown kit as ready for tracking population immunity to the virus.
