Skin sensitization test of two new medical titanium alloys / 实用口腔医学杂志

ABSTRACT

Objective:To study the sensitization of two newly developed titanium alloys, TLE and TLM.Methods:According to ISO 10993-10:1995 standard,maximization test was conducted in guinea pig.The skin sensitization reactions,including erythema and oedema, induced by TLE, TLM, normal saline and 2,4-dinitrochlorobenzene were observed and scored respectively at 24,48 and 72 h exposure of the infusion of the materials. The allergenic rates and mean response score were calculated.Results:The allergenic rates and score of skin reaction of TLE and TLM were 0/15 and 0,those of normal saline 0/15 and 0,those of 2,4-dinitrochlo-robenzene 15/15 and 5,respectively.Conclusion: TLE and TLM both are not of sensitization.
