Tóm tắt

An in vitro anaphylaxis test is described which explores the ability of compound re-challenge to induce histamine release from polynuclear basophils in whole blood of guinea pigs that had previously been sensitised. This test is used in drug safety, in support of the in vivo active systemic anaphylaxis test, which is sometimes required by regulatory authorities, when the observed clinical signs are not conclusive. This sensitive and discriminative test is inexpensive and reduces animal utilisation.
