In order to verify whether theM. tuberculosis in Bahia (Brazil) would offer some attenuation in the degree of virulence for the animals of laboratory (mouse and guineapigs) as it had been verified in India, the authors made experiments within the technique advised by Mitchison and concluded that they had not found out the difference of virulence between the strains of Bahia and England.
