Laboratory

Genomic ref allele [ID]

Definition

Reference values ("normal") examined within the Reference Sequence. This is used in a genotyping test to define the reference and variable nucleotide strings. That is if the sequence variation is an insertion, then Reference Nucleotide will be blank and Variable Nucleotide will contain the inserted nucleotides. In contrast, if the sequence variation is a deletion, then the Reference Nucleotide will contain the deleted nucliotieds, and the Variable Nucleotide will be blank.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is LOINC code 69547-8?

LOINC code 69547-8 identifies "Genomic ref allele [ID]". Reference values ("normal") examined within the Reference Sequence. This is used in a genotyping test to define the reference and variable nucleotide strings. That is if the sequence variation is an insertion, then Reference Nucleotide will be blank and Variable Nucleotide will contain the inserted nucleotides. In contrast, if the sequence variation is a deletion, then the Reference Nucleotide will contain the deleted nucliotieds, and the Variable Nucleotide will be blank.

What does 69547-8 measure?

This code measures Reference nucleotide in Bld/Tiss. It belongs to the HL7.GENETICS class in the LOINC classification.

What is LOINC?

LOINC (Logical Observation Identifiers Names and Codes) is a universal standard for identifying laboratory and clinical observations. It is maintained by the Regenstrief Institute and used worldwide for health data exchange.
