In an intradermal test, a small amount of antigen, typically ranging from 0.1 to 0.5 mL, is injected into the dermis of the skin. The exact volume can vary depending on the specific test being conducted and the antigen used. This method allows for a localized immune response to be assessed, often used in allergy testing or tuberculosis screening.
