    Abstract: An object of the present invention is to provide a skin sensitization measuring reagent, a method for measuring skin sensitization, and a compound that allow the sensitization of a test substance to be measured using a single reagent. According to the present invention, there is provided a skin sensitization measuring reagent including, as a main measuring agent, an organic compound having at least one thiol group derived from an amino acid and at least one amino group derived from a side chain of an amino acid. The organic compound has an absorption spectrum in an ultraviolet, visible, or near-infrared region and has a molar absorption coefficient of 100 L/mol·cm or more and 500,000 L/mol·cm or less at a maximal absorption wavelength.

    Abstract: An object of the present invention is to provide a method for measuring respiratory sensitization and a respiratory sensitization measuring reagent that can be used to evaluate a test substance for respiratory sensitization without using an animal. According to the present invention, there is provided a method for measuring respiratory sensitization, including reacting a N-(arylalkylcarbonyl)cysteine with a test substance; reacting an α-N-(arylalkylcarbonyl)lysine with the test substance; detecting the amount of each of the above compounds or a product thereof after the reaction by optical measurement; and determining respiratory sensitization from the ratio of the reactivity of the α-N-(arylalkylcarbonyl)lysine with the test substance to the reactivity of the N-(arylalkylcarbonyl)cysteine with the test substance or from the reactivity of the α-N-(arylalkylcarbonyl)lysine with the test substance.
