Abstract

For the establishment of more reliable and applicable methods for the diagnosis of tuberculosis in dairy cattle, avian- and mammalian PPD tuberculins were prepared according to the methods of Weybridge purified protein derivative tuberculins with minor modifications. PPD tuberculin was not only a very pure product from a chemical standpoint, but also one which, judged on the basis of laboratory results, was likely to be more potent and reliable than HCSM tuberculin.
