Contact allergy to atranorin in lichens and perfumes.

Atranorin, one of the most common lichen substances, gave positive patch test reactions in eight subjects (1%) in a routine series. These subjects also reacted to fumarprotocetraric acid and some of them to evernic acid. Stictic acid and usnic acid gave negative reactions. The lichen oak moss Evernia prunastri and an oak moss perfume gave positive reactions. Thin-layer chromatography and a spot test indicated that atranorin is present in oak moss perfumes which are made from oak moss and tree moss. Contact with oak moss perfumes and lichens in nature may cause atranorin allergy. None of the eight subjects had a history of light sensitivity or atopy and none had chronic facial eczema.

Allergic contact dermatitis from acrylates in ultraviolet curing inks.

Six patients developed dermatitis while working with ultraviolet curing inks in four different printing plants. Contact allergy was found to the multifunctional acrylate monomers pentaerythritol triacrylate (PETA) and trimethylol propane triacrylate (TMPTA) and to the epoxy acrylate and polyesteracrylate prepolymers.
