[Intradermal tests and epidemiologic survey of South American blastomycosis].
This paper is part of the author's free-teaching theses presented in 1974, in which he has studied 436 persons not carriers of the B.S.A. and other diseases, resident in Campos, Conceição de Macabu and Quissamã (urban and rural zones). Tests were applied in these patients by using standardized antigen of polysaccharide of Paracoccidioides brasiliensis of histoplasmine. The author concluded that there has been existence of the B.S.A.-infection which means what is called "INFEKT". He emphasizes that the epidemiologic researches have important role in the estimation of the incidence of the B.S.A.
