简要总结
The purpose of the study is to determine if any of Mother's Choice' all-natural personal-care products cause either irritation or allergic reaction when applied to both normal or sensitive skin.
Each product will be tested on the skin using patch tests.
详细描述
Volunteers will be seen on Day #0 and the study purpose will be explained. Each volunteer will be interviewed to determine if he/she has any exclusion criteria.
If there is no contraindication, and agreement is achieved,consent forms will be signed.
Volunteers will be examined by a lactic acid test to determine if he/she has normal or sensitive skin. In this test, a Finn's cell (plastic cell, size 1*1 cm) with lactic acid (50 microliter, 10%w/v) will be placed on the volunteer's cheek for ten minutes. The volunteer will be defined as "sensitive" or "normal" according to the degree of discomfort they report.
Patch-tests will be performed in the standard method. The materials to be tested will be placed in Finn's cells and attached to the participants healthy skin's back by a plaster (Micropore).The chambers will be left on the skin for 48 hours. The test will be read by a specialist one hour after chambers' removal and 48 hours afterwards. Any erythema,edema, blisters, pustules or erosions on the skin in the patch area will be considered a positive response, and will be evaluated by clinical tools as being of the irritant or the allergic type. in case of uncertainty we may use a confocal microscope for in vivo diagnosis.
Ingredients: appropriate concentrations and solvents of the test materials will be prepared according to accepted standards (refer to: Anton C. De Groot: Patch Testing, 3ed Edition, Wapserveen, The Netherlands, 2009).Leave on products will be tested 'as is'. Rinse off products will be diluted to 5% and 0.5%.

结局指标
主要结局
Number of participants with positive reactions, number of positive reactions.
时间窗: One week
Erythema, edema, blisters, pustules or erosions on the skin in the patch area will be considered a positive response. If the skin is normal after the patch removal, it means that contact with the material do not cause allergy or irritation.
次要结局
- Number of irritant versus allergic reactions, as determined by confocal microscopy.(On the spot)
