Abstract
A method has been developed for expressing quantitatively the results of measurements of human skin sensitivity to compounds of the mustard gas type. Using this method a study has been made of induced hypersensitivity to bis(β-chloroethyl)sulphide, and to ethyl bis(β-chloroethyl)amine, and of cross reactions involving these two compounds. The relationship between hypersensitivity and the "flare reaction" has been investigated, and a simple method of inducing the latter is reported. A possible significance of these findings in connection with the healing of mustard gas burns is suggested.
