The titer will vary with each lot; the exact value is provided with each shipment. The minimal titer is >106 TU/ml.

The Spike (SARS-CoV-2) Pseudotyped VSV Delta G (Luciferase Reporter) was produced with SARS-CoV-2 Spike corresponding to the initial strain (Genbank Accession #QHD43416.1) as the envelope glycoprotein instead of VSV-G. The pseudovirions contain the firefly luciferase gene; therefore, the spike-mediated cell entry can be measured via luciferase activity. The Spike (SARS-CoV-2) Pseudotyped VSV Delta G (Luciferase Reporter) can be used to measure the activity of a neutralizing antibody against SARS-CoV-2 in a Biosafety Level 2 facility. The Spike (SARS-CoV-2) Pseudotyped VSV Delta G (Luciferase Reporter) has been validated for use with target cells Vero-E6, Calu-3, and ACE2-HEK293 (BPS Bioscience #79951). Spike VSV Delta G are preferred for use in cells such as Vero-E6 and Calu-3. The infectivity of VSV-Delta G pseudotypes is restricted to a single round of replication, therefore the pseudotypes can be handled using BSL-2 containment practices.
