A tuberculocide is a substance or a process which disables or destroys the spore which causes tuberculosis, Mycobacterium tuberculosis.
History
editIn 1955, Bergsmann studied dairin as a tuberculocide.[1]
In 1976, Sachse studied peracetic acid as a tuberculocide.[2]
In 1998, Wang and Ding studied diterpenoids from the roots of Euphorbia ebracteolata (one of the Euphorbia genus) as a tuberculocide.[3]
In 2010, Zhang et al. reported that Euphorbia fischeriana had been used especially in Asia as a tuberculocide.[4]
In 2011, Nde et al. studied three oxidative disinfectants as tuberculocides.[5]
