LaboratoryPlesiomonas shigelloides DNA [Presence] in Stool by NAA with probe detection
Definition
This term was created for a RT-PCR test that identifies the 23S ribosomal subunit of Plesiomonas shigelloides DNA using fluorescent probes. Results (positive/negative) are based on the cross threshold (Ct) value of the amplified DNA.
