Arms of the Study
Arm 1
Experimental
Positive reactions, Concordance with reference allergen
Subjects were patch tested with an experimental allergen panel containing ascending doses of Lyral (0.10 mg/cm2, 0.20 mg/cm2 and 0.40 mg/cm2) and a negative control. A second panel containing 20 mg of 5% Lyral in petrolatum was applied for evaluation of concordance. The panels were worn for approximately 48 hours. Skin reactions were assessed at 3, 4 and 21 days following application.
