  • Title: Reactivity of purified proteins and polysaccharides from Mycobacterium tuberculosis in delayed skin test and cultured lymphocyte mitogenesis assays.
    Author: Daniel TM, Hinz CF.
    Journal: Infect Immun; 1974 Jan; 9(1):44-7. PubMed ID: 4202891.
    Abstract:
    Hypersensitivity responses to two highly purified and well characterized mycobacterial proteins and a preparation of mycobacterial arabinogalactanarabinomannan were studied by using guinea pig skin tests and in vitro-cultured human lymphocyte mitogenesis stimulation assays. The purified proteins were found to elicit delayed-type hypersensitivity skin test reactions and to stimulate mitogenesis in cultured lymphocytes. The polysaccharide preparation was found to evoke delayed skin tests but not to stimulate cultured lymphocytes.
