Disposable unit-dose PPD.
The new type of disposable unit-dose PPD has some advantages in that the injection can be performed anytime, anywhere when needed, if the sterile tuberculin syringe or the disposable tuberculin syringe is available, immediately after reconstitution of PPD without any decrease of potency. There is no risk of contamination such as hepatitis infection. The potency of the new type PPD was compared with the multi-dose PPD and the stability of potency in the storage of this PPD was observed.
