The murine local lymph node assay (LLNA) is a method for the prospective identification of contact allergens. Skin sensitization potential is assessed as a function of induced proliferative responses in lymph nodes draining the site of topical exposure measured in situ by incorporation of radiolabel
A modified version of the local lymph node assay (LLNA) is presented, using bromodeoxyuridine to label proliferating lymphocytes. Cell counting is done on mid-sagittal sections of individual nodes under light microscopy. Two irritants (sodium lauryl sulfate and salicylic acid), four allergens of var
