2 Introduction Tuberculosis (TB)- An infectious disease of humans and animals caused by the tubercle bacillus and characterized by the formation of tubercles on the lungs and other tissues of the body, often developing long after the initial infection. Tubercle bacillus- A rod- shaped aerobic bacterium (Mycobacterium tuberculosis) that causes tuberculosis. Pickett, J.P., et al., Eds. The American Heritage College dictionary, 4 th ed.; Houghton Mifflin Company: Boston, MA, 2002; p Image taken from: Jabado,.; Gros, P. ature 2005, 434, (7034),
3 An Ancient Disease Consumption and white plague Hippocrates, the ancient Greek physician, noted that phthisis (consumption) was the most widespread and fatal disease of his time.

4 Today As of March 24, 2009 (World TB Day) 9.27 million EW cases in Asian and African countries account for 80% of global TB Cost to diagnose and treat 1.4 million cases in high burden regions $16.9 billion Donald, P. R.; van Helden, P. D.. Engl. J. Med. 2009, 360, (23),
5 Pathogenesis of TB Mode of Infection Ingestion (intestines) Consumption of contaminated milk Inhalation (lungs) Intake of airborne pathogens Deposited in Lymph nodes (~2 weeks) Reddy, C.A.
