Several examinations may, however, require to be made; this should always be done before any conclusion as to the non-tubercular nature of a case is come to. In cases of genito-urinary tuberculosis they are usually present in the urine ; but as they are much diluted it is difficult to find them unless a very complete formation of deposit is allowed to take place. This deposit is examined in the same way as the sputum. It is, however, much easier to obtain their sep- aration by means of the Cen- Fig. bacilli in urine; show- trifuo*e If this method is i",? one of the characteristic clumps, in which thev often occur.
