Here, a new point-of-care approach for SARS-CoV-2 specific antibody detection in human serum based on magnetic immuno-detection is described and compared to standard ELISA. For magnetic immuno-detection, immunofiltration columns were coated with a SARS-CoV-2 spike protein peptide. After addition of 176 biotinylated GaR and subsequent labelling with streptavidin-AP, the ELISA plate was read out at 177 405 nm and obtained measuring values were used to generate calibration curves for SARS-CoV-2 178 specific antibody concentrations in PBS (Fig 1, black curve) and in human serum samples (Fig 1, red 179 curve). Same calibration measurements employing dilutions of SARS-CoV-2 specific antibody were 211 done with our PoC MInD-based setup (Fig 2 and 3) . Comparable to laboratory-based ELISA, the same 212 dilutions of SARS-CoV-2 spike protein peptide specific antibody in PBS-buffer (Fig 3, black ./cache/cord-261718-zqoggwnk.txt ./txt/cord-261718-zqoggwnk.txt
