LOINC Code


LOINC code77343-2
nameGamma globulin [Mass/volume] by Electrophoresis in Urine collected for unspecified duration
descriptionUrine protein electrophoresis fractions are used, in conjunction with other testing, to find M-bands which can signal monoclonal gammopathies such as multiple myeloma. The urine specimen collections are of an unspecified duration, with random and 24 hour collections being the most common.
