Collection Summary: | Peripheral blood samples were collected at the Vendas Novas and Almada-Seixal Pneumonologic Diagnostic Centers (CDP-). Briefly, around 7 mL of blood was collected in order to obtain 3 mL of serum. Whole blood samples were harvested using Clot Activator Tubes (Monovette Serum Gel Z – 7.5 mL, S-monovette, Sarstedt®). IGRA test (QuantiFERON®-TB Gold IT, ©QIAGEN) was used to confirm infection status in Control and Latent groups. These samples were transported at 4°C to the National Institute of Health Doctor Ricardo Jorge (INSA). Samples displaying hemolysis or with unidentified IGRA results were excluded from further analysis. |
