[Practical application of tuberculin tests].

A Zimmermann, U Ackermann-Liebrich.   

Abstract

A study was conducted to compare the Tuberculin-Tine test with the Tuberculin Monotest; a total of 1861 pupils (age 15) were tested with either of the two tests, non-reactors were retested with a Mantoux-Test of 10 UI. False negative rates were 16% for the Tuberculin Tine-test and 25% for the Monotest. However the positive reactions of the Monotest were more unequivocal.
