LP16722-8 Measles virus
Measles, also known as rubeola, is a disease caused by a virus, specifically a paramyxovirus of the genus Morbillivirus. Reports of measles go back to at least 600 BCE, although, the first scientific description of the disease and its distinction from smallpox is attributed to the Persian physician Ibn Razi (Rhazes) 860-932 who published a book entitled Smallpox and Measles (in Arabic: Kitab fi al-jadari wa-al-hasbah). In 1954, the virus was isolated, and vaccines became available in 1963. Measles is spread through contact with fluids from an infected person's nose and mouth, either directly or through aerosol and is highly contagious. Ninety percent of people without immunity living in close quarters with an infected person will catch the disease. The incubation period usually lasts between 10-12 days and during that time there are no symptoms.

- Change Reason
- The PrThr property is used for LOINC terms whose results are reported using an ordered categorical scale, regardless of whether or not an internal threshold was used to make that determination. This change was approved by the Laboratory LOINC Committee in June 2016.

LP248006-1 Measles virus N gene
The measles virus (MeV) nucleoprotein (N) gene is analyzed for the detection of MeV in clinical specimens. PMID: 16274752 The N gene is also used for the genetic characterization of MeV. Genetic classification is an important part of laboratory surveillance for measles and to provide support for molecular epidemiologic studies. Since endemic genotypes can change quickly, constant monitoring of cases and outbreaks is necessary. PMID: 21666208
