Abstract
The present invention provides for a novel epicutaneous test plaster useful for the application of test substances for direct and continuous contact with the skin of a human patient.
Claims12
An epicutaneous test plaster comprising
- A support lattice of absorbent paper adhered with a moisture barrier layer containing a first multiplicity of holes,
- A flexible carrier lattice containing a second multiplicity of holes, said flexible carrier lattice including an adhesive layer for removable adhesion of the epicutaneous plaster to a skin portion;
- a removable cover layer extending over all the adhesive layer of said flexible carrier lattice, and
- a plurality of test chambers distributed over the support lattice of absorbent paper adhered with a moisture barrier layer;
- wherein the second multiplicity of holes on the flexible carrier lattice is greater than the first multiplicity of holes on the support lattice of absorbent paper adhered with a moisture barrier;
- wherein said flexible carrier lattice is adhered to the support lattice on the side opposite to the moisture barrier layer;
- wherein the plurality of test chambers are formed by way of second multiplicity of holes in the flexible carrier lattice describing a frame around a contiguous portion of the support lattice;
- wherein a subset of the first multiplicity of holes on the support lattice align with the second multiplicity of holes in the flexible carrier lattice;
- and
- wherein the removable cover layer is removably secured by way of the adhesive layer of the flexible carrier lattice.
