摘要：

Qualitative differences in tuberculin reactivity between patients with pulmonary tuberculosis, occupational contacts and noncontacts were observed. An erythematous reaction at 6-8 h was frequently observed in patients and contacts but much less frequently in noncontacts. Itching and the presence of superficial bullae occurred principally in the contact group and the erythematous reactions at 48 h were largest in this group. Attention needs to be paid to several characteristics, other than size, of the tuberculin reaction.
