As searching the nomenclature of chemical compounds may be complex in IPA the use of the CALL CHEM-function search is recommended in those cases in which a simple chemical name or the CAS-No. is known (CALL CHEM, statements 1 - 6).

As searching the nomenclature of chemical compounds may be complex in IPA the use of the CALL CHEM-function is recommended in thoses cases in which a simple chemical name or the CAS-No. is known. With the command CALL CHEM it is possible to search for synonyms and other CAS-Nos.. The profile table below shows only the synonyms and CAS-No. with hits in IPA (see statements 3 to 37).

| AB: | The development of a human test model to examine the effect of histamine on delayed type hypersensitivity reactions (DTHR) after application of contact allergens in sensitized humans is described; 22 volunteers, ages 19-61 yr, were tested by the procedure, which involved the administration of 0.1 ml intracutaneous histamine and control solutions. No significant inhibitory effect of histamine on DTHR occurred. It was concluded that histamine, when locally administered, does not clearly influence the elicitation of DTHR. (Lisa Webster) |
