Abstract

A murine local lymph node assay (LLNA) has been developed as an alternative to guinea pig models for contact sensitization potential. However, a disadvantage of the LLNA is the need for the use of radioactive material. In this study, we aimed to investigate the development of non-radio isotopic endpoint for LLNA using immunohistochemistry.(omitted)
