Dermatologic Clinics, 1984
The variability of irritant reactions requires that irritants be thought of as having a range of concentrations that produce reactions. The concept of an ID50 helps to keep some of these variables in mind. Individuals may have altered irritant thresholds because of eczematous dermatitis elsewhere, strongly positive patch tests, and factors that enhance
