| description | The level of similarity score indicates how similar the result from an unknown sample is to a reference sample. A higher score indicates that identification is possible at the species level, versus an intermediate score that allows identification at the genus level. Low scores do not allow identification of the organism from the unknown sample. The specific scores at which genus- and species-level identification is possible vary by microorganism.

| time | Pt = Point in time: To identify measures at a point in time. This is a synonym for “spot” or “random” as applied to urine measurements. | ||
| system | Isolate/Specimen | ||
| scale | Qn = Quantitative: The result of the test is a numeric value that relates to a continuous numeric scale. Reported either as an integer, a ratio, a real number, or a range. The test result value may optionally contain a relational operator from the set {<=, <, >, >=}. Valid values for a quantitative test are of the form "7", "-7", "7.4", "-7.4", "7.8912", "0.125", "<10", "<10.15", ">12000", 1-10, 1:256 | ||
