48813-0Methicillin resistance mecA gene [Presence] by Molecular method

Term Description

Qualitative detection of the nucleic acid sequences in the bacterial methicillin resistance mecA gene in positive blood culture specimens by target amplification and non-probe detection methods, such as melt curve analysis. This term was created for, but not limited in use to, the submitter's test kit, FilmArray Blood Culture Identification panel v2. For the FilmArray kit, a "Not Detected" result does not indicate antimicrobial susceptibility. Subculturing is required for species identification and susceptibility testing of isolates.

Part Descriptions

LP265773-4   Bacterial ABXBACT probe.amp.tar
PCR-based Methods for bacterial susceptibility are similar to genotyping for viral susceptibility, in that resistance or susceptibility is inferred based on the presence or absence of specific genetic information that is known to encode resistance to a specific antibiotic or group of antibiotics. For bacteria, resistance is often conferred by genes that are carried on plasmids, which can be transferred from one species to another. These genes encode proteins that specifically inhibit certain antibiotics, such as carbapenems or aminoglycosides. Source: Regenstrief LOINC
