Measles virus IgM Ab [Units/volume] in Body fluid by Immunoassay   74416-9

LOINC Code


LOINC code74416-9
nameMeasles virus IgM Ab [Units/volume] in Body fluid by Immunoassay
descriptionQuantitative analysis of measles virus IgM antibodies in body fluid (e.g. mother's milk, lachrymal liquid, aqueous humor, etc.) is performed to aid in determining a patient's serological status to the measles virus. This term is based on, but not limited in use to, the LIAISON® Measles IgM assay, which uses chemiluminescence immunoassay (CLIA) technology for the quantitative determination of specific IgM antibodies to measles virus.

Fully-Specified Name

componentMeasles virus Ab.IgM
propertyACnc  =  Arbitrary Concentration
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.
systemBody fld  =  Body fluid, unspecified
scaleQn  =  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
methodIA  =  Immunoassay:  Encompasses all immunoassays with a few exceptions, including Immune Blot and Immune Fluorescence, which were created based on historic usage.

History/Usage

first released
last updated2.68
last change typeMIN  - change to field other than name
change reasonThe 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.
