    Delayed hypersensitivity skin testing measures immune responses to injected antigens. This review covers its techniques, interpretation, and clinical significance for diagnosing various conditions.

    Area of Science:

    • Immunology
    • Dermatology
    • Clinical Diagnostics

    Background:

    • Delayed hypersensitivity skin testing (DHST) assesses cell-mediated immunity.
    • It relies on the delayed inflammatory reaction post-antigen injection.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To present the techniques and interpretation guidelines for DHST.
    • To discuss the histologic and immunologic basis of DHST.
    • To highlight the clinical importance of DHST using various antigens.

    Main Methods:

    • Review of literature on delayed hypersensitivity skin testing.
    • Discussion of antigen injection techniques and interpretation criteria.
    • Analysis of histologic findings and immunologic mechanisms.

    Main Results:

    Related Experiment Videos

    • DHST technique and interpretation are detailed.
    • Histologic features and immunologic pathways are explained.
    • Clinical utility of DHST with recall antigens, microbial antigens, dinitrochlorobenzene, and tumor antigens is discussed.

    Conclusions:

    • DHST is a valuable diagnostic tool for assessing cell-mediated immunity.
    • Proper technique and interpretation are crucial for accurate results.
    • Reactivity patterns provide insights into immune status and disease.
