Abstract:
Thirty patients were skin tested by Multi-Test and Morrow Brown needle using antigens, histamine, glycerosaline, and blank controls to examine reproducibility and influence of positive reactions on adjacent negative controls. There was no evidence that histamine or strongly positive antigen reactions affected adjacent negative controls. Multi-Test was more reproducible, and preferred by patients over Morrow Brown.
