Abstract
The usefulness of a new jet injector manufactured by the Scientific Equipment Manufacturing Corporation of Larchmont, N. Y., is described for the administration of tuberculin. The advent of a new intradermal tip has made this possible. Results compared favorably with the standard Mantoux technique. Administration is rapid, inexpensive, and suitable for mass tuberculosis screening programs.This publication has 4 references indexed in Scilit:
