Skin testing is another type of IDP, but one that is performed in vitro (in the patient) rather than in vivo (in the laboratory). In skin testing, antigens are injected within or beneath the skin (intradermally or subcutaneously, respectively). An example of a commonly used skin test is the TB skin test (previously described). Skin testing is also used to determine the allergens to which an atopic individual is allergic. (1 Point)TrueFalse
