LOINC Code
| LOINC code | 98066-4 | ||
|---|---|---|---|
| name | Colistin resistance mcr-3+mcr-4+mcr-5 genes [Presence] by Molecular method | ||
| description | Qualitative detection of nucleic acids within the mobilized colistin resistance (mcr) genes 3-5 (mcr-3, mcr-4, mcr-5) found in Gram-negative bacteria. Testing may be performed in addition to conventional culture susceptibility testing to determine the potential bacterial resistance mechanism to antibiotics. | ||
| status | ACTIVE | ||
Fully-Specified Name | |||
| component | Bacterial colistin resistance mcr-3+mcr-4+mcr-5 genes | ||
| 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 | Isolate/Specimen | ||
| scale | Ord = Ordinal: Ordered categorical responses, e.g., 1+, 2+, 3+; positive, negative; reactive, indeterminate, nonreactive. | ||
| method | Molgen = Molecular Genetics: General class of methods used to detect genetic attributes on a molecular basis including RFL, PCR and other methods. | ||
