ABSTRACT
The effectiveness of the QuantiFERON-TB-Gold in tube was compared with PPD to detect tuberculosis infection in the staff of cattle-farms, as a consequence of an outbreak of bovine tuberculosis in livestock. The data revealed the advantage of the immunological test for the specific detection of subjects infected by Mycobacterium tuberculosis complex.
