LOINC description : Identification of gram-negative (GN) bacterial targets and genetic markers of antibiotic
resistance directly from positive blood cultures by oligonucleotide probe detection
of sequence of interest. Direct detection (non-PCR) based methods do not involve DNA
amplification and therefore avoid amplification of contaminants. This panel was created
for, but not limited in use to, Nanosphere's Verigene Gram-Negative Blood Culture
test (BC-GN), which uses microarray analysis with probe to identify gram-negative
bacteria, including Acinetobacter sp, Citrobacter sp, Enterobacter sp, Proteus sp,
Escherichia coli, Klebsiella pneumoniae, Klebsiella oxytoca, and Pseudomonas aeruginosa,
as well as the six antibiotic resistance gene markers: CTX-M, KPC, NDM, VIM, IMP,
OXA.;
