Erythema elicited by the local irritant sodium lauryl sulphate was studied in comparison with unexposed skin. Colour coordinates of the CIE system were recorded using two commercially available colorimeters. With both colorimeters a positive movement of the alpha-axis (toward red, P less than 0.001) and a negative movement on the L-axis (toward dark, P less than 0.01) were registered. Technical and in-vivo experimentation showed the two pieces of equipment to be accurate. However, a simple conversion factor cannot be established. Both pieces of equipment correlated positively with clinical scoring of erythema and with measurement of cutaneous blood flow by laser-Doppler flowmetry. In conclusion, the two colorimeters appeared comparable. Colorimetry by the CIE system, which takes into account the non-linear colour perception of the human eye, was found useful with potential value in both experimental and clinical dermatology. The techniques appeared suitable for routine testing.
