Longitudinal Trends in Serum Levels of Mycobacterial Secretory (30 kD) and Cytoplasmic (65 kD) Antigens During Chemotherapy of Pulmonary Tuberculosis Patients

Antigen 85 (mol. wt 30,000) (30 kD), secreted by actively growing mycobacteria under axenic conditions, and mol. wt 65,000 (65 kD), a cytoplasmic antigen released during mycobacterial lysis, were used to monitor the efficacy of chemotherapy in previously untreated pulmonary tuberculosis (UPTB) patie...
