Mycobacterium abscessus complex clarithromycin resistance erm(41) gene [Interpretation] by Molecular method   77736-7

LOINC Code


LOINC code77736-7
nameMycobacterium abscessus complex clarithromycin resistance erm(41) gene [Interpretation] by Molecular method
descriptionThe interpretation for RT-PCR detection of full length and truncated gene variants of the erm(41) gene unique to Mycobacterium abscessus complex (M. abscessus, M. massiliense, and M. bolletii) from clinical isolates. The presence of a full length functional erm(41)gene confers inducible resistance to clarithromycin while the non-functional truncated erm(41) gene exhibits higher drug susceptibility.[PMID: 22290346]
statusACTIVE

Fully-Specified Name

componentMycobacterium abscessus complex clarithromycin resistance erm(41) gene
propertyImp  =  Impression/interpretation of study
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.
systemIsolate/Specimen
scaleNom  =  Nominal:  Nominal or categorical responses that do not have a natural ordering. (e.g., names of bacteria, reported as answers, categories of appearance that do not have a natural ordering, such as, yellow, clear, bloody.
methodMolgen  =  Molecular Genetics:  General class of methods used to detect genetic attributes on a molecular basis including RFL, PCR and other methods.

History/Usage

first released
last updated2.65
last change typeMAJ  - change to name field other than Component;
change reasonRemoved parentheses around "erm(41)" in Component based on our current LOINC model.; Updated System from "Isolate" and Method from "Probe.amp.tar" according to the new, more sustainable model for LOINC molecular resistance terms [Approved by LOINC Laboratory Committee in June 2018].
