Methicillin resistance mecA+mecC genes [Presence] in Nose by NAA with probe detection

mecA+mecC Nose Ql NAA+probe

Definition

  • Detection of the mecA or mecC gene in methicillin-resistant bacteria, specifically methicillin-resistant staphyloccus aureus (MRSA), in various clinical specimens. The result for this term detects the presence of mecA and mecC genes but does not differentiate between them. This term is based on, but not limited in use to, the submitter's Xpert® MRSA NxG assay.
