Abstract

The Author showed the characteristics of a cutaneous patch test called SAFT (Skin Application Food Test). The test is useful to put in evidence immediate im­munological contact reactions so frequent in children with atopic dermatitis. As compared with other skin tests SAFT is particularly useful in highly sensitised pa­tients and in small children.
