- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method <p>- N-acetyltransferase 1 (NAT-1) activity within subjects allergic to PPD,<br /><br>compared to subjects without a PPD allergy. The NAT-1 activity will be measured<br /><br>in whole blood, in the whole PBMC population and in the CD3+, CD4+ and CD8+<br /><br>T-cells seperately.</p><br>
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method <p>- Quantification of cytokines in plasma.<br /><br>- Genotyping for the NAT-1 gene and determining the odds ratio of proportional<br /><br>frequencies of NAT-1 variants.<br /><br>- Determining the NAT-1 protein leven in leucocytes/T-cells.<br /><br>- Determining the promotor region methylation status.</p><br>
