Private Harley Street Clinic is delighted to be the first private UK clinic to offer this 2-in-1 T cell and Antibody Test to the public. Stay informed of your own immunity profile and use the most comprehensive testing package commercially available to look for evidence of an immune system response to SARS-CoV-2 with our Covid-19 (Anti-SARS-CoV-2-S Spike) IgG/IgM Total Antibody Test and New T cell Test, T-SPOT.COVID from Oxford Immunotec.

Learn more about the role of Immune Response Investigation in a recent blog by the clinic's Medical Director Dr Mark Ali.

Please note that for any of our Clinic or Home Test bookings, proof of identity is required prior to having your sample taken. This can be an ID Card, Passport, Drivers License or Residents Permit. If you are having a Fit to Fly test, please bring your passport. Unfortunately, we will not be able to assist you if you do not have any legal identification on you when coming for your appointment.

This is a test for the quantitative determination of antibodies against the SARS-CoV-2 in serum. The spike protein is the target of many Covid-19 vaccines in development. This blood test enables determination of both the presence and level of antibodies to the Covid spike protein. This test can signal whether a person has already been infected and has potentially started to develop a level of immunity to the virus.

T cell tests are intended to detect a T cell-mediated immune response to SARS-CoV-2 and is different to serology (which looks for an Antibody response). The detection and measurement of each method can provide different information about disease activity and an individual’s personal immune response. Antibodies may not be present in everyone who gets infected with SARS-CoV-2 and they may not be detectible after a long period of time. Evidence of a T cell response in the blood suggests previous exposure to the SARS-CoV-2 virus.

We do not yet know if the presence of SARS-CoV-2 specific T cells gives protection and makes you immune, nor how long any immunity will last.

Both Antibody and T cell tests look for evidence of the immune response to COVID-19. The aim is to answer the question: have I been exposed to COVID-19 and produced an immune response?

T cells and antibodies are two arms of the adaptive immune response. The T cell test is intended to detect a T cell-mediated immune response to SARS-CoV-2 and is different to serology (which looks for an Antibody response). The detection and measurement of each method can provide different information about disease activity and an individual’s personal immune response. Antibodies may not be present in everyone who gets infected with SARS-CoV-2 and they may not be detectible after a long period of time. Evidence of a T cell response in the blood suggests previous exposure to the SARS-CoV-2 virus.

We do not yet know if the presence of Antibody/SARS-CoV-2 specific T cells gives protection and makes you immune, nor how long any immunity will last.

If the test is being taken following a confirmed COVID-19 case, or after vaccination, the test should be taken 14 days or more following symptom onset/vaccination date.
