CHRONIC DISABLING DERMATOSES

Abstract

Our investigations have centered around two increasingly significant sources of chronic dermatitis, namely: bacterial infections, and photosensitivity reactions. In both areas we have been obliged to develop suitable experimental models and quantitative methods of assay. The ability to establish these disorders experimentally enables us to investigate the factors which contribute to pathogenesis as well as to assess the effectiveness of therapy. (Author)
