LOINC Code 85534-6: FLUAV avian NUC Ab/Negative control IA (S) [Relative ratio]

What is this code?

LOINC codes identify tests, measurements, observations, survey items, and clinical questions in a standardized way. It is associated with the component Influenza virus A avian origin nucleoprotein Ab/Negative control. It is commonly used with the system or sample type Ser.

When is it used?

• Used in lab systems, EHRs, and clinical data exchange.
• May identify a test, observation, survey item, or clinical document request rather than a diagnosis.
• Status: ACTIVE
• Order vs observation: Observation
• Method: IA

What it does not mean

• The code identifies the observation or test, not the actual result.

Key facts

• Influenza virus A avian origin nucleoprotein Ab/Negative control in Serum by Immunoassay
• Influenza virus A avian origin nucleoprotein Ab/Negative control
• Similar to most EIA tests, results are reported as a ratio of optical densities. Although it targets an avian-origin NP protein, the protein has been found useful as a screening test for detection of other type A influenza viruses such as swine influenza virus (SIV), and influenza A viruses in other species such as equine, canine, and feline.
