LOINC display name : B. pertussis bronchiseptica holmesii IS481 DNA NAA probe (Specimen) [ThreshNum];
LOINC long common name : Bordetella pertussis bronchiseptica holmesii IS481 DNA [Cycle Threshold #] in Specimen
by NAA with probe detection;
LOINC short name : B per bron holm IS481 DNA Ct Spec NAA pr;
LOINC description : The quantitative (Ct) value of the IS481 insertional element DNA sequence of the Bordetella
pertussis and B. holmesii genomes detected in clinical specimens or culture isolates.
B. bronchiseptica may also be detected in this assay but is primarily an animal pathogen
and rarely found in humans. This assay does not differentiate between the Bordetella
species. This term was created for, but not limited in use to, the Antimicrobial Resistance
Laboratory Network's (ARLN) multiplex real-time PCR assay.;
