Fluorescent Antibody Identification of a Culture

Mississippi rates for HCPCS 87140

This laboratory test identifies the specific type of bacteria or other microorganism that has already been grown from a patient sample, using a fluorescent-tagged antibody that binds only to a particular organism. Each test targets one possible organism, so more than one may be run to narrow down the exact identity of what is growing. It is used to guide targeted treatment once a general culture has shown that something is growing.
