[The value of the tuberculin tine test]
Abstract:
The sensitivity of two different tuberculin multipuncture tests (PPD Merieux and Tubergen) was compared with Mendel Mantoux GT 10 in 213 persons. Merieux tests were false-negative in 15.3% of the cases, whereas congruence of the positive Mendel Mantoux and Tubergen reactions was 100%.
