LOINC display name : MTB complex rifAMPin and isoniazid resistance panel Molgen (Islt/Spec);
LOINC long common name : MTB complex rifAMPin and isoniazid resistance panel by Molecular genetics method;
LOINC short name : MTB RIF and INH resist Pnl Islt/Spm;
LOINC description : This panel contains the results for the detection of Mycobacterium tuberculosis (MTB)
complex rifampicin (RIF) and isoniazid (INH) resistance in isolates or direct clinical
specimens by molecular testing. The assay detects resistance-conferring mutations
in native genes, including rpoB (rifampicin), katG (isoniazid) and inhA (isoniazid).
The presence or absence of various mutations is used to predict resistance, including
low or high-level resistance, to these drugs.;
