69566-8
LaboratoryBacterial vaginosis associated bacterium 2 DNA [Presence] in Vaginal fluid by NAA with probe detection
Definition
The result (score) for this test is based on the quantity of Bacterial Vaginosis Associated Bacterium 2 (BVAB2) in vaginal fluid by nucleic acid amplification compared to known calibrator values. The score is used to determine the presence of bacterial vaginosis (see LOINC 69564-3).
