LOINC long common name : Colistin resistance mcr-3 mcr-4 mcr-5 genes [Presence] by Molecular method;
LOINC short name : Colistin res mcr-(3-5) Islt/Spm Ql;
LOINC description : Qualitative detection of nucleic acids within the mobilized colistin resistance (mcr)
genes 3-5 (mcr-3, mcr-4, mcr-5) found in Gram-negative bacteria. Testing may be performed
in addition to conventional culture susceptibility testing to determine the potential
bacterial resistance mechanism to antibiotics.;
