IFN-γ ELISPOT was done 4 months (year 0) and 16 months (year 1) after the accidental exposure. ELISPOT results are shown as mean numbers of spot-forming cells (SFC)/106 PBMC minus the mean of medium value.
Symbols: <, number of SFC less than in medium; ND, not done; *, not interpretable due to high medium values.
A to I, technicians present during the accident, by decreasing exposure level; Lab 1 to 10, technicians not present during the accident; TB 1 to 3, cured TB patients, treated 10, 3, and 2 years before; TST 1 to 3, tuberculin skin test converters after a known exposure to TB 5, 6, and 10 years before.
Limited pulmonary TB diagnosed during routine checkup before clinical symptoms became apparent; Lab 9, 33 years ago and Lab 10, 8 years ago.
A value that is >20 constitutes a positive response.
