LOINC description : This panel contains terms used for qualitative detection of nucleic acids from various
Gram-positive pathogens, directly from positive blood culture samples. It also includes
detection of the presence of pan Gram negative organisms and Candida that may be missed
in cases of co-infection, as well as genetic determinants of resistance. This panel
was created for, but not limited in use to, the GenMark ePlex Blood Culture Identification
Gram-Positive Panel (BCID-GP), which detects the following organisms: Bacillus cereus
group, Bacillus subtilis group, Corynebacterium, Cutibacterium acnes (Propionibacterium
acnes), Enterococcus, Enterococcus faecalis, Enterococcus faecium, Lactobacillus,
Listeria, Listeria monocytogenes, Micrococcus, Staphylococcus, Staphylococcus aureus,
Staphylococcus epidermidis, Staphylococcus lugdunensis, Streptococcus, Streptococcus
agalactiae(GBS), Streptococcus anginosus group, Streptococcus pneumoniae, and Streptococcus
pyogenes (GAS). In addition, the panel can include terms detecting the presence of
gram-negative and Candida species (without distinguishing between them), and the presence
of resistance genes, including mecA, mecC, vanA and vanB.;
