In this updated version, the guinea pig maximisation test(GPMT) of Magnusson and Kligman which uses adjuvant... and the non-adjuvant Buehler Test... are given preference over other methods. 1, record 1, English, - guinea%20pig%20maximisation%20test

Depuis plusieurs décennies, le cobaye représente l'animal de prédilection pour les essais visant à prévoir la sensibilisation. Deux types d'essai ont été élaborés : les essais avec adjuvant, dans lesquels la sensibilisation est potentialisée par l'injection de l'Adjuvant Complet de Freund (ACF), et les essais sans adjuvant. [...] Dans cette version mise à jour, parmi les méthodes, on donne la préférence au test de maximisation chez le cobaye (GPMT) de Magnusson et Kligman, qui utilise un adjuvant [...] et au test de Buehler, qui n'utilise pas d'adjuvant [...] 1, record 1, French, - test%20de%20maximisation%20chez%20le%20cobaye
