Measles virus IgG Ab [Units/volume] in Body fluid by Immunoassay 74418-5
LOINC Code
| LOINC code | 74418-5 | ||
|---|---|---|---|
| name | Measles virus IgG Ab [Units/volume] in Body fluid by Immunoassay | ||
| description | Quantitative analysis of measles virus IgG antibodies in body fluid by immunoassay-based methods to aid in the diagnosis of recent or current infection. This term is based on, but not limited in use to, the Trinity Biotech Captia (TM) Measles IgG Enzyme-linked Immunosorbent Assay (ELISA), which is detects and quantifies IgG antibodies to measles (Rubeola) virus in human serum for the determination of immune status. | ||
| status | ACTIVE | ||
Fully-Specified Name | |||
| component | Measles virus Ab.IgG | ||
| property | ACnc = Arbitrary 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 | Body fld = Body fluid, unspecified | ||
| 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 | MeV IgG Fld IA-aCnc | ||

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. | |||

| 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. | ||
