title: [Depigmentizing effect of a glucocorticoid applied topically to black giunea pig skin].
abstract: A 33 p. cent triamcinolone acetonide in DMSO is applied on the skin of black guinea-pig to ascertain its depigmenting potency. Its action is characterised by a marked, but incomplete, reduction of melanocytes in the epidermis and in the hair. A comparison is made with an other previously experimented corticosteroid.
