The Tuberculinum Residuum homeopathic strain is prepared from Mycobacterium Tuberculosis, commonly known as Koch’s bacillus or BK. To be more precise, homeopaths use a glycerine solution which contains fat-soluble principles of this bacterium. Thus, it is thanks to biotherapy techniques that the strain is obtained.
As a reminder, Koch’s bacillus is a bacterium belonging to the Mycobacteriaceae family. Discovered by Robert Koch in 1882, this is the bacterium responsible for tuberculosis. Compared to other bacteria, BK is distinguished by its resistance in dust and in the air. Moreover, this resistance is the reason why pulmonary tuberculosis is considered to be a highly contagious infectious disease. Especially since Mycobacterium Tuberculosis is easily transmitted by air.
