The present disclosure provides a method for severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) detection on the basis of receptor binding, including: subjecting crosslinked agarose as a matrix to surface carboxyl modification to obtain a magnetic agarose microsphere, and covalently coupling the magnetic agarose microsphere with a receptor protein to obtain a receptor protein-coupled magnetic agarose microsphere; allowing the receptor protein covalently binding to a surface of the receptor protein-coupled magnetic agarose microsphere to recognize and bind to a receptor-binding domain (RBD) of an outer membrane protein S of a SARS-CoV-2 sample, which simulates a binding process of the SARS-CoV-2 to a host cell to capture the SARS-CoV-2; subjecting the magnetic microsphere to washing, purification, and elution successively to obtain the SARS-CoV-2 with a cell binding ability; and detecting by an immunobinding-fluorescence quantitative polymerase chain reaction (PCR) combination, and evaluating infectivity and transmissibility of the SARS-CoV-2. The method is suitable for evaluating the replication and transmission of the SARS-CoV-2 in a patient infected with the SARS-CoV-2 during a treatment process and the infectivity of the SARS-CoV-2 carried by a patient with relapse symptoms after recovery.
