title: Reduced skin threshold to irritation in the presence of allergic contact dermatitis in the guinea pig.
abstract: The skin is more susceptible to irritation when an active eczematous process is present. This reduced threshold to irritation occurs in skin distant from the site of the eczematous skin. Data is presented to demonstrate the appearance of irritant dermatitis to lower concentrations of sodium lauryl sulfate during the presence of an allergic contact dermatitis in the guinea pig.
