70294-4
LaboratoryEntamoeba sp DNA [Identifier] in Specimen by Sequencing
Definition
This test is a sequence-based identification of a 15S ribosomal subunit specific for species in the Entamoeba histolytica/dispar complex (E. histolytica, E. dispar, E. nuttalli, and E. ecuadoriensis). For general detection (presence/absence) of the Entamoeba histolytica/dispar complex species by RT-PCR, see LOINC 70293-6.
