9 MB MBLNKID Link ID Char Identifier Perm Identifier used to link related records across domains. This may be a one-to-one or a one-to-many relationship. For example, it may be used to link genetic findings (in the PF domain) about a microbe to the original culture of that microbe (in MB), or to susceptibility records (in MS) if needed.

It can be used as a column name when converting a dataset from a vertical to a horizontal format. The value in MBTESTCD cannot be longer than 8 characters, nor can it start with a number (e.g., "1TEST" is not valid). MBTESTCD cannot contain characters other than letters, numbers, or underscores. Examples: "MCORGIDN" for Microbial Organism Identification "GMNCOC" for Gram Negative Cocci.
12 MB MBTEST Microbiology Test or Finding Name Char C120528 Synonym Qualifier Req Verbatim name of the test or examination used to obtain the measurement or finding.

17 MB MBORRESU Original Units Char C71620 Variable Qualifier Perm Original unit for MBORRES. Example: "mcg/mL".
18 MB MBSTRESC Result or Finding in Standard Format Char Result Qualifier Exp Contains the result value for all findings copied or derived from MBORRES, in a standard format or standard units. MBSTRESC should store all results or findings in character format; if results are numeric, they should also be stored in numeric format in MBSTRESN. For example, if a test has results "+3 MODERATE", "MOD", and "MODERATE" in MBORRES and these results effectively have the same meaning, they could be represented in standard format in MBSTRESC as "MODERATE".
19 MB MBSTRESN Numeric Result/Finding in Standard Units Num Result Qualifier Perm Used for continuous or numeric results or findings in standard format; copied in numeric format from MBSTRESC. MBSTRESN should store all numeric test results or findings.
20 MB MBSTRESU Standard Units Char C71620 Variable Qualifier Perm Standardized units used for MBSTRESC and MBSTRESN.
21 MB MBRESCAT Result Category Char Variable Qualifier Perm Used to categorize the result of a finding in a standard format.
22 MB MBSTAT Completion Status Char C66789 Record Qualifier Perm Used to indicate that a question was not asked or a test was not done, or that a test was attempted but did not generate a result. Should be null or have a value of "NOT DONE".
23 MB MBREASND Reason Not Done Char Record Qualifier Perm Reason not done. Used in conjunction with MBSTAT when value is NOT DONE. Examples: "BROKEN EQUIPMENT", "SUBJECT REFUSED".
24 MB MBNAM Laboratory/Vendor Name Char Record Qualifier Perm Name or identifier of the vendor (e.g., laboratory) that provided the test results.
25 MB MBLOINC LOINC Code Char Synonym Qualifier Perm Logical Observation Identifiers Names and Codes (LOINC) code for the topic variable (e.g., lab test).
