Borrelia mayonii oppA1 gene [Presence] in Blood by NAA with non-probe detection 82473-0
LOINC Code
LOINC code
82473-0
name
Borrelia mayonii oppA1 gene [Presence] in Blood by NAA with non-probe detection
description
The 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 identify B. mayonii and differentiate it from the other three species.

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.
