Extrait

This is a human pilot study of 16 healthy BCG-naïve volunteers to quantify BCG from the BCG vaccination site. Volunteers will be vaccinated with BCG. The first 8 will go on to have a punch biopsy and suction blister of the vaccination sites at 2 weeks post vaccination (arm A) the second 8 will have a biopsy and blister at 1 or 4 weeks post-vaccination (arm B). Methods of mycobacterial quantification on these tissue samples will then be compared
