Abstract
Summary: Tuberculin tests using both human and avian tuberculin were carried out on patients with Hodgkin's disease, malignant lymphoma, leukemia, pernicious anemia and malignancy. Similar tests were done on tuberculous and normal individuals. Fewer positive reactions were obtained in the patients with the diseases of the lymphoid and myeloid tissues and with malignant disease as compared with the normals and the tuberculous patients. More positive reactions to avian tuberculin than to human were found except in the normal group.Keywords
