Accurate COVID-19 Testing in SCV

Unruh Spine Centers is now offering two options for accurate COVID-19 testing in Santa Clarita:

• COVID Lab Test IgG and IgM Elecsys Anti-SARS-CoV-2 Immunoassay
• Healgen GCCOV-402a COVID19 Lateral Flow Serum IgM/IgG Test

Elecsys® Anti-SARS-CoV-2 Lab Test

The test is designed to detect antibodies in a blood sample that would indicate that you may have a current (contracted within 3-5 days) or prior COVID-19 infection. The test would be taken via blood draw in the office and mailed to the lab. Results come back in 10-12 business days.

Healgen COVID-19 IgG/IgM Rapid Test

This test kit is a quick test that will develop results in the same day. This rapid test will detect antibodies as well as current (contracted within 3-5 days) COVID infections. You will receive these results by the end of the day.

Important Facts

We have received a lot of questions about the validity of our testing. You should know that no antibodies tests are currently approved by the FDA yet, however, our lab is 1 of 10 labs that has been granted access to provide the anti-body testing. The lab is fully certified with the FDA and the test itself is registered.

We use Marquis Lab who is partnered with Roche.

Our test uses a blood specimen, not saliva. The IgG antibodies identify those exposed to the virus in the past. If you have immunized anitbodies this test could help you return to work.
