LOINC code82472-2
nameBorrelia garinii+afzelii oppA1 gene [Presence] in Specimen by NAA with non-probe detection
descriptionThe DNA amplification target is the 283-bp plasminogen-binding protein gene (oppA1), which is present at a frequency of one copy per organism in all four pathogenic species of the Borrelia burgdorferi sensu lato genogroup (Borrelia burgdorferi sensu stricto, Borrelia afzelii, Borrelia garinii, and Borrelia mayonii). Melting curve analysis is used to differentiate B. afzelii and B. garinii from the other two species but cannot differentiate between B. afzelii and B. garinii. Potential specimens include CSF, tissue, and synovial fluid.

Fully-Specified Name

componentBorrelia garinii+afzelii oppA1 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.
systemXXX
scaleOrd  =  Ordinal:  Ordered categorical responses, e.g., 1+, 2+, 3+; positive, negative; reactive, indeterminate, nonreactive.
methodNon-probe.amp.tar
