name | SARS-CoV-2 (COVID-19) N gene [Presence] in Specimen by NAA with probe detection | ||
description | Qualitative detection of nucleic acids within the nucleoprotein (N) gene of SARS coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) in various specimens, including lower & upper respiratory, serum, stool or urine, by nucleic acid amplification with probe-based detection. Various assays have been developed that contain primer-probe sets targeting N gene. [https://www.who.int/emergencies/diseases/novel-coronavirus-2019/technical-guidance/laboratory-guidance] If using the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) SARS-CoV-2 (2019-nCoV) assay, use the codes specific for the target 1 (N1) [LOINC: 94307-6] and target 2 (N2) [LOINC: 94308-4] primer-probe sets for the N gene developed by CDC.[CDC: coronavirus/COVID-19/lab/] The N3 target in the CDC assay is specific for SARS-like Coronavirus [LOINC: 94310-0]. | ||
status | ACTIVE | ||
Fully-Specified Name | |||
component | SARS coronavirus 2 N 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 | ||
