82205-6
LaboratoryCryptosporidium sp DNA [Presence] in Stool by NAA with non-probe detection
Definition
Qualitative detection of nucleic acid sequences in the Cryptosporidium sp DNA in stool specimens by PCR and non-probe detection methods, such as melt curve analysis. This assay does not differentiate between different species of cryptosporidium. This term was created for, but not limited in use to, the submitter's test kit, FilmArray Gastrointestinal Panel (GI) v2.1.
