Deprecated Streptococcus pneumoniae 8 IgG Ab [Mass/volume] in Serum by Immunoassay --1st specimen 40921-9
LOINC Code
| LOINC code | 40921-9 | ||
|---|---|---|---|
| name | Deprecated Streptococcus pneumoniae 8 IgG Ab [Mass/volume] in Serum by Immunoassay --1st specimen | ||
| status | DEPRECATED | ||
| status reason | Ambiguous - This term is deprecated because the number in the Component is ambiguous as to whether it represents the serogroup, U.S. serotype, or Danish serotype. Because the term was meant to represent the U.S. serotype, this term has been mapped to the corresponding Danish serotype number to align with the widely accepted Danish nomenclature for Streptococcus pneumoniae serotypes. | ||

Fully-Specified Name | |||
| component | Streptococcus pneumoniae 8 Ab.IgG^1st specimen | ||
| property | MCnc = Mass Concentration | ||
| 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 | Ser = Serum | ||
| 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 | ||
| method | IA = Immunoassay: Encompasses all immunoassays with a few exceptions, including Immune Blot and Immune Fluorescence, which were created based on historic usage. | ||
Additional Names | |||
| short name | Deprecated S pneum8 IgG sp1 Ser IA-mCnc | ||

| example unit | ug/mL | ||
Associated Observations | |||
LOINC codes that represent optional associated observation(s) for a clinical observation or laboratory test. A LOINC term may represent a single associated observation or panel containing several associated observations. | |||
History/Usage | |||
| first released | |||
| last updated | 2.70 | ||
| last change type | MIN - change to field other than name | ||
| change reason | The EIA method, which was always intended to cover more than just enzyme-linked immunoassay and whose display name for the long common name has always been Immunoassay, was renamed IA in order to eliminate ambiguity about whether the method has a broader meaning than just enzyme-linked immunoassay. Likewise, EIA.rapid was renamed IA.rapid. These changes were approved by the Laboratory LOINC Committee in June 2016.; Added serotype system to component name. | ||
