Abstract

S.I. of TCSA PCH (group B) and musk ambrette PCH (group D) were respectively g3 49% and 75.00 S.I. of group A and B, which were only challenged with TCSA and musk ambrette respectively without prior sensitization, were 33, 33% and 27. 78%. These data indicated the TCSA PCH (group B) was experimentally produced in guinea pigs when it compared to musk ambrette PCH (group D) and controls (group A and C) (Table 1). However, S.I. of TCSA PCH was somewhat lower than index of musk ambrette PCH.
