ABSTRACT:
There is provided a method for performing skin tests for biologic response which includes providing an applicator having at least one pick having at least one skin piercing epidermal point and being capable of carrying a load of testing substance such as biologic substances, such as an antigen, for skin testing for each pick, each of said sources being carried in a container having an opening. The applicator is placed in sealing relationship over each of the openings in the container to form a single unit of the combined applicator and source. The unit is then inverted so as to load each pick with an effective amount of substance to perform a skin test, reverting said unit, and the applicator is removed in loaded condition ready for use. The testing substances are epicutaneously deposited by piercing the patient's skin with each pick to a predetermined depth and observing the pierced skin for response to the testing substance.
