Tuberculinum Bovinum

Bovine Tuberculin or tuberculin of animals (cattle)

is prepared in hommopathic attenuations, in London, by Epps and Nelson.

Moir and Hay think that, in accordance with what they have seen of its use, the bovine tuberculin gives better results than does the ordinary human tuberculin.

According to Ord, an occasional dose of bovine tuberculin in the 30th is undoubtedly useful to those who have been treated by the old method of frequent doses of ordinary tuberculin, but Ord has never been successful in completely curing a case by bovine tuberculin only.

Bishop has mentioned the necessity, when the condition remains stationary, of changing the human tuberculin for the bovine.
