چکیده

The method used to produce "Connaught" tuberculin purified protein derivative (PPD) is described. The tuberculin PPD for the multiple-puncture method was shown to be stable for at least 24 months at 5 C; tuberculin PPD for the intracutaneous method was shown to be stable at 5 C and 24 C for a period of 18 months in the presence of Tween 80. Evans blue or brillant vital red was added to tuberculin PPD for improved testing by the multiple-puncture method. These tinted tuberculin preparations were found to be as stable as the Connaught tuberculin PPD preparations without dye at 5 C. Freeze-dried tuberculin PPD with Plasdone as an inert base was found to be remarkably stable for a period of at least 24 months at 5, 24, and 37 C.

A Method for Coupling Protein Antigens to Erythrocytes

A serological technique, using formalinized red cells coupled to tuberculin PPD as antigen, has been assayed in a trial series of 124 tuberculous and 139 non-tuberculous patients. The stability of the antigen preparation, and the omission of an adsorption procedure for the removal of isoagglutinins facilitated the performance of the test. The results indicate that the technique warrants further...

ارزیابی کارایی پروتئین A60 باکتری مایکوباکتریوم بوویس سویه BCG به عنوان پادگن تشخیصی

     Tuberculosis is the most common infectious diseases. Current diagnostic methods are either slow or lack enough sensivity or specificity. Several mycobacterial antigens are involved in the complex interaction with the immune system of the host. They can be helpful for mycobacteria diagnosis. Antigen 60 (A60) is thermostable antigen found in Mycobacterium bovis and Mycobacterium tuberculosis...
