| description | Detection of variants in the 23S rRNA gene of H. pylori responsible for Clarithromycin resistance. Two or more mutations (e.g. A2143G and T2182C) may be detected. Testing may be performed on a variety of specimens, including gastric tissue and stool, to assist in treatment planning for H. pylori infections. This term was created for, but not limited in use to, a PCR-based Caliper LabChip with sequencing technology. | |
| status | ACTIVE | |
Fully-Specified Name | ||
| component | Helicobacter pylori 23S rRNA clarithromycin resistance mutation | |
| property | Prid = Presence or identity: Prid stands for “Presence or identity”, is used for assays that detect whether or not an analyte of a particular kind is present, and if it is, to identify the specific analyte. | |
| 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 | Isolate/Specimen | |
| scale | Nom = Nominal: Nominal or categorical responses that do not have a natural ordering. (e.g., names of bacteria, reported as answers, categories of appearance that do not have a natural ordering, such as, yellow, clear, bloody. | |
| method | Molgen = Molecular Genetics: General class of methods used to detect genetic attributes on a molecular basis including RFL, PCR and other methods. | |
