Vibrio cholerae toxin ctxA gene [Presence] in Stool by NAA with probe detection 80680-2
LOINC Code
LOINC code
80680-2
name
Vibrio cholerae toxin ctxA gene [Presence] in Stool by NAA with probe detection
description
Qualitative detection of nucleic acid sequences in the Vibrio cholerae toxin subunit A (ctxA) gene in stool specimens by PCR-based methods. This term was created for, but not limited in use to, the submitter's test kit, xTAG® Gastrointestinal Pathogen Panel (GPP).
status
ACTIVE
Fully-Specified Name
component
Vibrio cholerae toxin ctxA gene
property
PrThr = 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.
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.
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.
Updated Component from "Vibrio cholerae toxin subunit A (ctxA)" based on the current LOINC model.
