A Study of the Types of Tubercle Bacilli Found in Human Tuberculosis in Alaska
Account of investigation on the types of Mycobacterium tuberculosis responsible for the high prevalence of bone and joint tuberculosis in Alaska. In 180 cultures isolated from human cases of extra-pulmonary tuberculosis, no bovine only human type bacilli were found. Of 5,114 cultures isolated by the Alaska Dept. of Health, all except one were of the human type.

The purpose of this research was to begin the process of developing a performance measurement scale that is holistic – including the entire set of family business goals, both financial and non-financial – and considers the idiosyncratic nature of family businesses.
