Description
The BD Tuberculin Syringe is a 1 mL tuberculin syringe with fine tenth-millilitre graduations and a detachable 21G x 1 in. needle. It suits clinics giving small, precisely measured doses, from tuberculin testing to paediatric and intradermal work.
- Tenth-mL Graduations – the fine scale supports the small-dose accuracy tuberculin work demands
- Detachable Needle – the supplied 21G needle exchanges when a different gauge suits the dose
- Slip Tip Format – the push-on tip keeps the small barrel simple and quick to assemble
Small-Dose Accuracy in a 1 mL Barrel
Tuberculin syringes exist for doses where a tenth of a millilitre is a meaningful fraction of the whole, and the barrel printing reflects that precision. The graduations divide the 1 mL barrel finely enough to read those small volumes directly instead of estimating between coarse marks. A detachable needle keeps the syringe flexible: the included 21G x 1 in. PrecisionGlide needle handles the standard work, and other gauges fit the same slip tip. The green hub on the supplied needle follows the 21G colour code, so the pairing is readable before the pack is even opened. Cases of 800, boxed 100 at a time, match the consumption of testing programs and busy immunization clinics.

Why Small Doses Deserve Their Own Syringe
Reading 0.1 mL on a 10 mL barrel is estimation, not measurement, and small-dose programs cannot run on estimation. A dedicated 1 mL barrel makes the small reading the easy reading.
- Readable Precision – the fine scale turns fractional doses into direct readings
- Gauge Flexibility – the detachable needle adapts the syringe to the dose and the patient
- Program-Scale Cases – 800 per case for testing and immunization throughput
- BD Syringe Standard – the barrel and printing follow BD's core syringe line, consistent with the rest of the shelf
