[Contact urticaria due to rubber gloves].

Two patients had a case history suggesting contact urticaria to rubber gloves. This was confirmed by an open patch test which produced a wheal and flare reaction. As the gloves consisted of natural latex, scratch testing with natural latex, provided by the manufacturer, was also carried out. The scratch test produced a wheal and flare reaction, whereas scratch tests with natural latex in 20 control subjects produced no reaction.

[Allergen-specific immunoglobulin E in the serum (RAST), skin tests and mucosa provocation tests using house dust and house mite extract in rhinopathy and bronchial asthma].

Allergy against house dust and house dust mite was examined by RAST, skin and provocation test, with not identical allergen extracts. 50 patients with allergic rhinitis showed insufficient RAST results with house dust, better results for house dust mite. 65 patients with allergic asthma bronchiale presented satisfying results with house dust, good results with house dust mite. Recommendations are given for the application of RAST in the diagnosis of allergy.

[DNA cytophotometry on cells of dermatofibrosarcoma protuberans (author's transl)].

Determination of DNA content was performed by Feulgen staining of tumour cell smears and DNA measurement with an integrating microdensitometer, In 3 cases of Dermatofibrosarcoma protuberans there was a DNA distribution in the range of 2 c: only a few cells showed a DNA content in the range between 2 c and 4 c; no atypical DNA distribution curves were found. The rate of proliferation in these cases of Dermatofibrosarcoma protuberans is small, there are no cytophotometric indices for malignancy.
