Level of immunity introduced by single or multiple intradermal administrations of various concentrations of antigen in vaccination dose was studied in the paper. Intradermally administered vaccine against Actinobacillus pleuropneumoniae developed comparable immunity to vaccines administered intramuscularly. In spite of intramuscularly induced immunity, there is little known about immunity devel...

The heat/capsaicin sensitization and intradermal capsaicin injection models are safe and noninvasive paradigms to generate stable, long-lasting, and reproducible injury capable of producing an area of both primary and secondary hyperalgesia. Risk of skin injury is substantially reduced since lower levels of thermal and chemical irritation produce long-lasting cutaneous hyperalgesia. Rekindling ...

OBJECTIVE To compare the intradermal and percutaneous routes of BCG administration. SOURCES OF DATA A review of the literature published between 1987 and 2002 was carried out in the MEDLINE and Lilacs databases. The following key words were used: BCG vaccine/administration, adverse effects, efficacy, tuberculosis/prevention and control. Some articles published before 1987 were included becaus...

Intradermal lesions and subsequent bacteremia were produced in rabbits by the intradermal inoculation of Type III strains freshly isolated from pneumonia cases. Slight intradermal lesions were produced but no bacteremia was found in rabbits inoculated with an old stock Type III strain. The intradermal lesions and the bacteremia produced by the inoculation of Type III cultures in rabbits were us...

Intradermal immunization using microfabricated needles represents a potentially powerful technology, which can enhance immune responses and provide antigen sparing. Solid vaccine formulations, which can be coated onto microneedle patches suitable for simple administration, can also potentially offer improved shelf-life. However the approach is not fully compatible with many vaccine adjuvants in...

PURPOSE To report two new suture techniques for best esthetic skin healing. METHODS Using the pig skin slices routinely employed for surgical technique training two new types of skin sutures were performed. One defined as inverted or hidden X point suture and other as totally hidden intradermal running suture. The first were performed using 4-0 polypropilene stitch and the intradermal with 4-...

Healthy volunteers were randomized to receive percutaneous or intradermal bacille Calmette-Guérin (BCG) vaccination. Delayed-type hypersensitivity (DTH) to tuberculin, as well as proliferative and interferon-gamma responses in peripheral blood mononuclear cells stimulated by whole cell lysates and culture filtrates of Mycobacterium tuberculosis and Mycobacterium avium-intracellulare, were compa...

antigens can also be applied on to the kin surface and skin prick testing (SPT) can be performed. Common allergens Intradermal tests are widely used to support the diagnosis of that are tested in skin prick tes are food, fungi, epthelia, dermatological and nondermatological diseases. They are pollens and mites. Intradermal tests can be done for similar mainly indicated for the detection of imme...
