A SKIN TEST FOR SUSCEPTIBILITY TO SCARLET FEVER
, 1924In 1923, we succeeded in producing experimental scarlet fever with an apparently pure culture of a hemolytic streptococcus isolated from a case of scarlet fever.1The Berkefeld V filtrate of this culture did not produce scarlet fever in a person who later

Tubercle, 1957
Summary Skin sensitivity in sarcoidosis has been investigated using tuberculin and Candida albicans antigen. Sixty-nine per cent of 102 cases of sarcoidosis gave a negative Mantoux reaction to 100 TU PPD compared with 20 per cent of controls. Among sarcoidosis patients who failed to react to tuberculin alone, tuberculin-cortisone gave reactions in 50

A Skin Test for Carcinogens [PDF]
Australasian Journal of Dermatology, 1969 Summary A carcinogen in the form of whole tobacco smoke condensate was applied to the skin of a group of human subjects most of whom had suffered from bronchogenic carcinoma. One week later the epidermal density was estimated on the area exposed to the carcinogen and compared with, the density of unexposed epidermis in the same subject.

Severity of asthma in skin test-negative and skin test-positive patients
Journal of Allergy and Clinical Immunology, 1985The standardized records of 144 asthmatic patients have been analyzed to determine whether the severity of their condition was correlated with the presence or absence of positive intradermal skin test reactions to a panel of seven allergen extracts (dust, feathers, Alternaria, Hormodendrum, mixed tree pollen, mixed grass pollen, and ragweed pollen ...

Tuberculin testing is the major method of diagnosing tuberculous infection. Although a significant degree of variability exists in reading reactions (1), the test continues to be the most reliable and available in diagnosis. It is used to diagnose tuberculous infection in contrast to tuberculous disease. Its reactivity separates the infected individual

Skin tests remain the best diagnostic tool to supplement the history and physical examination in current allergy practice. They are a highly specific measure of IgE fixed to tissue. They are at least as sensitive as other available methods. Several antigens can be tested at one time.
