Immunisation against tuberculosis is still recommended for secondary school children in the UK. Only children who do not react to tuberculin tests are offered vaccination. We report the results of two studies, carried out to evaluate a new applicator of the disposable Imotest multiple puncture tuberculin test. The results demonstrate that Imotest is well tolerated and compares favourably with the Heaf and Mantoux tests. Imotest detected significantly more tuberculin responders than Heaf.
