## Abstract The murine local lymph node assay, an alternative predictive test for the identification of contact sensitizing chemicals, is based upon the fact that skin allergens induce proliferation in lymph nodes draining the site of application. In the present study we have examined whether preβe

A murine local lymph node assay has been developed for the identification of contact sensitizing chemicals. In the present study, the performance of the local lymph node assay has been evaluated with twenty-four coded chemicals of previously unknown skin sensitizing potential and the results compar
The local lymph node assay (LLNA) is used to assess the skin sensitization potential of chemicals. In the standard assay, mice are treated topically on the dorsum of both ears with test substance for 3 days. Following 2 days of rest, the initiation of the hypersensitivity response is evaluated by in
## Abstract The local lymph node assay (LLNA) is a skin sensitization test that provides animal welfare benefits. To reduce animal usage further, a modified version (rLLNA) was proposed. Conducting the rLLNA as a screening test with a single high dose group and vehicle control differentiated accura
