The TB (Tuberculosis) Skin Test (Mantoux) The tuberculosis (TB) skin test, sometimes called a “Mantoux,” is a simple, harmless way to find out if you have latent TB infection. What is latent TB infection? There are two phases of TB. Both phases can be treated with medicine. When TB germs first enter your body, they cause latent TB infection. Without treatment, latent TB infection can become active TB disease. Anyone can get TB because it spreads from one person to another through the air.

Description and Brand Names Menotropins injection is used to treat infertility in women. Menotropins are a mixture of follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) and luteinizing hormone (LH) that are produced in the body by the pituitary gland. Menotropins injection is used in women with healthy ovaries who are enrolled in a fertility program called assisted reproductive technology (ART). ART uses procedures such as in vitro fertilization (IVF). Menotropins is used together with human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) in these procedures.

- The Mantoux skin test is given by using a needle and syringe to inject 0.1 ml of 5 tuberculin units of liquid tuberculin between the layers of the skin (intradermally), usually on the forearm (Figure 1).hether a reaction to the Mantoux tuberculin skin test is classified as positive depends on the size of the induration and the person's risk factors for TB (see Table 1). An induration of 5 or more millimeters is considered a positive reaction for the following people:

SIO 210 Talley Topic 2: Properties of seawater The density of seawater is about 1025 kg/m^3 and the specific heat is about 3850 J/(kg C). The heat flux into the volume must then be density*specific heat*(delta T)*volume/(delta t) where T is temperature and t is time. This gives a heat change of 100 W. The heat flux through the surface area of 1m^2 is thus 100 W/m^2.
