Details on study design:
The GPMT protocol with the same experimental design as in a previous study on TEA (Boman et al., 1993) was followed. Groups of 15 animals were induced with either MEA, DEA or TEA and then challenged after three weeks with the inducing amine and the two others. Prior to the topical induction, pretreatment with 10% sodium dodecyl sulphate was carried out. The concentrations used for induction and challenge were based on previous experience with TEA and the concentrations of MEA and DEA were equimolar to those of TEA. The challenge reactions were read blindly 48 and 72 h after application or the patches (Finn chambers). Two separate experiments were carried out with MEA. Control groups of twelve animals were given the same treatment (Freund's Complete Adjuvant, vehicle, occlusion, etc.) except for the inducing amine.
