Treponema pallidum polA gene [Presence] in Genital specimen by NAA with probe detection   76766-5

LOINC Code


LOINC code76766-5
nameTreponema pallidum polA gene [Presence] in Genital specimen by NAA with probe detection
descriptionThis term was created for, but not limited in use to, the submitter's Progenie Molecular RealCycler test kit, which uses a polymerase chain reaction (PCR) based on the amplification of a specific region of the DNA/RNA using complementary primers to the target sequence, to detect the Treponema pallidum (PolA) gene.
statusACTIVE

Fully-Specified Name

componentTreponema pallidum PolA gene
propertyPrThr  =  Present or threshold:  The Property PrThr stands for “Presence or Threshold”, meaning either a) the actual presence or absence of an analyte, or b) that the amount of analyte detected is over some predetermined threshold.
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.
systemGenital
scaleOrd  =  Ordinal:  Ordered categorical responses, e.g., 1+, 2+, 3+; positive, negative; reactive, indeterminate, nonreactive.
methodProbe.amp.tar

change reasonThe PrThr property is used for LOINC terms whose results are reported using an ordered categorical scale, regardless of whether or not an internal threshold was used to make that determination. This change was approved by the Laboratory LOINC Committee in June 2016.; Removed parentheses from Component because the contents represent a gene name, not an acronym
