Reducing substances [Presence] in Stool   11060-1

LOINC Code


LOINC code11060-1
nameReducing substances [Presence] in Stool
descriptionThis term represents typical reducing substance assays that detect reducing substances in stool without (or before) the addition of HCl. These assays do not detect sugars that are not reducing, such as sucrose. A different code [LOINC: 57796-5] represents the stool reducing substance assay with the addition of HCl, which hydrolyzes sugars that are not typically reducing and converts them into a reducing form.
