Part Descriptions
LP247822-2 Meropenem+Vaborbactam
Vaborbactam is a beta-lactamase inhibitor in the new cyclic boronic acid class of inhibitors that is being developed in combination with meropenem. It has activity against serine carbapenemases, especially Klebsiella pneumonia carbapenemase (KPC), and the meropenem-vaborbactam combination is effective against KPC-producing strains of Enterobacteriaceae. It has been studied as a treatment of complicated urinary tract infection, acute pyelonephritis, and other infections due to carbapenem-resistant Enterobacteriaceae, including hospital-acquired and ventilator-associated pneumonia PMID: 27527080 In August 2017, meropenem-vaborbactam was approved by the U.S. FDA for the treatment of complicated urinary tract infections, including pyelonephritis.

LP6300-0 Gradient strip
A gradient strip is a reagent strip that contains a predefined concentration gradient of a specific antibiotic or combination of antibiotics that is used for antimicrobial susceptibility testing (AST) and antimicrobial resistance detection (ARD).
For AST, the result is reported in terms of the minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) of a specific antimicrobial that prevents the visible growth of bacteria. In LOINC, the "Gradient strip" method is used for AST gradient strips that result in an MIC result.
For ARD, the result is reported as the presence or absence of a specific enzyme or other mechanism that confers resistance, which is determined based on comparing the inhibitory concentration (IC) of a specific antimicrobial with the IC of that antimicrobial plus a resistance inhibitor. In LOINC, the "Gradient strip ARD" method is used for ARD gradient strips, which are not intended for determining individual MIC values.
