Summary

This project aims to create a reliable, long-lasting itch model by synergistically combining thermal pre-conditioning with the application of histamine or cowhage.

Conditions

  • Itching

Interventions

OTHER

Cowhage (Mucuna Pruriens)

The spicules will be manually inserted. Approximately 30-35 spicules are gently rubbed into a 1 cm diameter skin area on the forearm/face

OTHER

Histamine

To deliver histamine, standard allergy skin prick test (SPT) lancets are applied

OTHER

Heat
