Answer to Question 1

QuantiFERON-TB Gold test (QFT-G)
The CDC now recommends use of the QuantiFERON-TB Gold test (QFT-G) (CDC, 2005), a blood test, in place of the traditional TB skin test. The advantages of the QFT-G test are that it does not boost responses measured by subsequent tests, and the results are not subject to reader bias.

Answer to Question 2

skin
Skin, the largest human body organ, protects us from heat, light, injury, and infection, and serves to (1) help regulate body temperature; (2) store water, vitamin D, and fat; (3) help sense pain and other stimuli; and (4) prevent the entry of bacteria.
