| description | Targeted PCR-based analysis of nucleic acids within the spike (S) gene specific to the prototype strain of the Porcine epidemic diarrhea virus (PEDV) and reported as a cross threshold (Ct) value. This assay is performed on various specimens, including fresh tissues (intestine), fluids (feces, intestinal content, oral fluid), fecal swabs, and other miscellaneous specimens (environmental, feed, feed pre-mix). This term was created for, but not limited in use to, the submitter's PEDV S gene Prototype differential PCR, which targets the highly conserved regions of the PEDV S gene in order to differentiate between the two strains of PEDV know to be circulating in North America: the original US strain (US PEDV prototype), represented by this term, and the variant US strain (S INDEL variant) [LOINC: 85355-6]. | ||

| component | Porcine epidemic diarrhea virus prototype strain S gene | ||
| property | ThreshNum = Threshold Number | ||
| time | Pt = Point in time: To identify measures at a point in time. This is a synonym for “spot” or “random” as applied to urine measurements. | ||
| system | XXX | ||
| scale | Qn = 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 | ||
