Fully-Specified Name

componentBacterial strain
propertyType  =  Type:  The Property Type is used for assays that identify the specific analyte in cases when the baseline presence of the analyte is known.
timePt  =  Point in time:  To identify measures at a point in time. This is a synonym for “spot” or “random” as applied to urine measurements.
