Abstract

From September 2020, some immunoglobulin (IG) lots from US plasma contained neutralizing antibodies against the newly emerged SARS-CoV-2. Paralleled by the increasing numbers of post-COVID-19 donors, IG lot antibody positivity increased to 93% by January 2021, at a mean titer of ~30 IU/mL. The correlation predicted anti-SARS-CoV-2 potency to reach 345 IU/mL by July 2021. In addition to post-COVID-19 donors, the rapidly increasing number of COVID-19 vaccinated plasma donors now result in a mean antibody titer of >600 IU/mL already in July 2021 IG lots, with SARS-CoV-2 antibody titers for several lots even higher than earlier produced hyperimmune globulin products.
