name
descriptionData for red and green fluorescence are collected by flow cytometry and transformed to determine the degree of red fluorescence in the sperm population, known as the DNA fragmentation index (DFI). DFI measures abnormal chromatin structure.
statusACTIVE

Fully-Specified Name

componentDNA fragmentation index
propertySRto  =  Substance Ratio
timePt  =  Point in time:  To identify measures at a point in time. This is a synonym for “spot” or “random” as applied to urine measurements.
systemSemen  =  Seminal fluid
scaleQn  =  Quantitative:  The result of the test is a numeric value that relates to a continuous numeric scale. Reported either as an integer, a ratio, a real number, or a range. The test result value may optionally contain a relational operator from the set {<=, <, >, >=}. Valid values for a quantitative test are of the form "7", "-7", "7.4", "-7.4", "7.8912", "0.125", "<10", "<10.15", ">12000", 1-10, 1:256
methodFlow cytometry
