Abstract

It is demonstrated that tuberculin electrophoresis in chemoprophylaxix for M.tuberculosis infection in adolescents with a marked of hyperergic reaction to the Mantoux test (2TU) contributes to enhancement of nonspecific immunological reactivity, to a decline in immunospecific reactions, and reduction in the response to the Mantoux test (2TU).
