[ link to www.erasmusmagazine.nl (secure)] Unique find in Erasmus MC: antibody against corona A world first from Erasmus MC and Utrecht University: they have found an antibody against COVID-19. The scientific publication of the group of ten scientists is ready for assessment by the leading specialist journal Nature. 2020-03-13 at 20.38.54 Professor Frank Grosveld in 'his' laboratory. Believe it or not: it was already on the tenth floor of Erasmus MC: the antibody that blocks the infection of SARS1 and SARS2. In other words, a first-ever antibody to the coronavirus. Professor of cell biology Frank Grosveld (71) remains cool: "I am too old to jump on tables." |

But cultivation of the antibody can most certainly be used to treat coronavirus infections.
If this comes to fruition, it will be huge. |

Awaiting testing on humans but a step in the right direction. Can be used to detect the virus in your own home and as a viable treatment, once a pharmaceutical company takes up the contract to commercially manufacture. Bidding wars will be epic. Last Edited by Lollipoppins on 03/14/2020 01:06 PM |

This is HUGE!
Antibodies are the key to rapid field-kits for detection, and treatments. |

Antibodies are chemical signatures our immune system manufactures and assigns to a specific pathogen when they detect one. That's how our body knows how to detect and fight that infection in the future. |
