For the pricking skin preparation, sterile prick lancets for 1mm point skin testing will be used. They are used for allergy diagnostics in daily routine.

For the tape stripping in the skin preparation test conventional self adhesive tape by Tesafilm® is used.

To induce a large number of microchannels with a maximal depth of 150µm into the cornea layer a small patch of 351 tiny needles is used, which is on the market in the US and is intended for preparing the skin for transdermal application of topical dermatology products.
