86190-6
LaboratoryZika virus RNA [Presence] in Plasma from Donor by NAA with probe detection
Definition
This term is used to report the presence or absence of Zika virus RNA in donor plasma. Donor blood product screening is important because most individuals infected with Zika virus are asymptomatic, making screening based on clinical symptoms unreliable. [PMID: 27902502] This term was created for, but is not limited in use to, the Roche Diagnostic's Cobas Zika test.
