Cryptococcus sp rRNA gene [Presence] in Specimen by NAA with probe detection 81649-6
LOINC Code
| LOINC code | 81649-6 | ||
|---|---|---|---|
| name | Cryptococcus sp rRNA gene [Presence] in Specimen by NAA with probe detection | ||
| description | This term is used to report the presence or absence of Cryptococcus species DNA that encodes ribosomal RNA by PCR. The assay can detect but not differentiate between cryptococcal species including Cryptococcus neoformans and Cryptococcus gattii. Specimens may include CSF, blood, various body fluids, and bronchial aspirate samples. | ||
| status | ACTIVE | ||
Fully-Specified Name | |||
| component | Cryptococcus sp rRNA 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. | ||
| system | XXX | ||
| scale | Ord = Ordinal: Ordered categorical responses, e.g., 1+, 2+, 3+; positive, negative; reactive, indeterminate, nonreactive. | ||
| method | Probe.amp.tar | ||
