title: Evaluation of the photocontact allergenic potential of 6-methylcoumarin in the guinea pig.
abstract: 6-Methylcoumarin was tested in a new animal model developed for the predictive evaluation of photocontact allergenic potential. Negative results were obtained and these are discussed with respect to inherent limitations of the animal model.
