A micropatch is used to apply allergens to the skin in existing diagnostic patch test concentrations. The micropatch of the present invention provides a reliable and effective system of elicitation necessary for the diagnostic identification of allergy cases whilst substantially reducing the chances of sensitising subjects. The application area of the micropatch may be less than 0.5cm2, most preferably less than 0.1 cm2, and is applied to the upper arm rather than the back. The micropatch may be provided by a small chamber or stamp. |
