First seen Jun 27, 2026 ยท Last updated Jun 27, 2026

Summary

This study compared three FDA-cleared allergy skin test devices (AllerTest-10, Lincoln Multi-Test II, and Greer Skintestor OMNI) in 30 adults to see which is most accurate and least painful. Participants received histamine and glycerin controls on their skin, and researchers measured wheal size and pain scores. The goal is to help doctors pick the best tool for diagnosing allergies.
