LOINC display name : B. miyamotoi glpQ gene NAA non-probe Ql (Bld);
LOINC long common name : Borrelia miyamotoi glpQ gene [Presence] in Blood by NAA with non-probe detection;
LOINC short name : B miyamotoi glpQ Bld Ql NAA non-probe;
LOINC description : The DNA amplification target is a gene encoding glycerophosphodiester phosphodiesterase
(GlpQ), which is specific to the Borrelia species in the relapsing fever group. This
gene is not found in the Borrelia species that cause Lyme disease. Melting curve analysis
is then used to identify the organism as B. miyamotoi. A positive result is consistent
with active or recent infection.;
