German term

ldx

German to English Medical Medical (general) Medical report - Labs
Can someone help me with this abbreviation? It is part of a lab report. Please note that the first character in "ldx" is a small L.

Retroviren: HIV 1/2 -Ak/Ag (Screening) (Serum): negativ ldx.
Hepatitisviren: anti-HBs (Serum): 12 positiv mlE/ml; HCV-lgG (Serum): negativ ldx.

Thank you in advance!

philgoddard Feb 27, 2022:
Whatever it means, it's probably the same in English.
Dr. Christopher Kronen Feb 27, 2022:
Possible typo IDX and NOT LDX? IDX or index value(s) would make a lot more sense in the context of both the hepatitis and HIV viruses as you have here. You will find many hits on Google concerning index values and their significance/interpretation in laboratory test results.

I do not see how the proposed Cholestech LDX lipid analyzer really fits in here.

Infektionsdiagnostik

Just put "negative" in English. Or "not reactive", as it is usually written in virology lab reports.
Peer comment(s):

agree Dr. Christopher Kronen : I am happy to see you agree that it cannot be LDX. Your IDX is an even more likely option.

Thanks. Christopher, whenever I see Dx, I always think of diagnosis first, and since we are talking about viruses, "I" must be infection
