Infection Test Based On Enzyme Activity

Nebraska rates for HCPCS 87905

A laboratory test that detects an infection indirectly, by measuring an enzyme the organism releases rather than looking for the organism itself. A common example is a swab of vaginal fluid tested for an enzyme produced by the bacteria involved in bacterial vaginosis. It gives a quick result that supports a diagnosis alongside the clinical examination.
