Tuberculin Tests, Tuberculin Skin Tests and Tubersol

Tubersol Tuberculin Purified Protein Derivative (PPD) is used for the diagnosis of tuberculosis (TB). This test, also known as the Mantoux test, helps to identify individuals who have been exposed to the bacteria that cause TB. It is a skin test that involves injecting a small amount of PPD into the skin and then checking for a specific reaction after a few days. A positive reaction indicates exposure to TB bacteria, but further tests are needed to confirm a TB infection.
