Patients with positive patch test to formaldehyde can be safely vaccinated with formaldehyde‐containing vaccines
Abstract Background Prophylactic vaccination against influenza and other epidemic viruses is recommended for citizens above 65 years. Several vaccines may contain traces of formaldehyde and are contra-indicated in patients hypersensitive (in the broadest possible meaning) to formaldehyde.

European Society of Contact Dermatitis guideline for diagnostic patch testing - recommendations on best practice
Summary The present guideline summarizes all aspects of patch testing for the diagnosis of contact allergy in patients suspected of suffering, or having been suffering, from allergic contact dermatitis or other delayed‐type hypersensitivity skin and mucosal conditions. Sections with brief descriptions and discussions of different pertinent topics are followed by a highlighted short practical recommendation.

Parthenolide in Danish biodynamic and organic milk: A new source of exposure to an allergenic sesquiterpene lactone
The sunflower family of plants (Compositae = Asteraceae) is currently the most allergenic plant family worldwide, according to the number of sensitizing species. Secondary plant metabolites, including the allergenic sesquiterpene lactones present in Compositae plants, may occur in food items either through their presence in, or through contamination of, plant‐based raw materials, or through their occurrence in products of non‐plant origin.
Different concentrations and volumes of p‐phenylenediamine in pet. (equivalent doses) are associated with similar patch test outcomes: a pilot study
Concern about causing active sensitization when patch testing is performed with p‐phenylenediamine (PPD) 1% pet. has led to a recommendation to use PPD 0.3% pet. as a potentially safer preparation. However, the dose per area of allergen delivered, and hence the risk of active sensitization, depend on the amount dispensed into the patch test chamber, which can vary widely. To evaluate whether patch testing with equivalent doses of different concentrations of PPD in pet.
Allergic contact dermatitis caused by nail acrylates in Europe. An EECDRG study
Among 18?228 studied patients, 136 had ACD caused by nail acrylates (0.75%; 95%CI: 0.60–0.90), representing 67.3% (95%CI: 60.4–73.7) of ACD cases caused by acrylates. There were 135 females and 1 male, with a mean age?±?standard deviation of 36.7?±?12.2?years; 59 (43.4%) were exposed as consumers, and 77 (56.6%) were occupationally exposed.
Clinical patterns of Compositae dermatitis in Danish monosensitized patients
Compositae dermatitis was originally described as airborne contact dermatitis. More recent studies have reported a wider clinical spectrum, but often in polysensitized patients. To evaluate the clinical features of patients sensitized to Compositae only. Consecutive Compositae-sensitive eczema patients, tested between 1990 and 2015, who, at the patch testing session diagnosing their Compositae allergy, were found to be sensitized only to the plant family, were included.
Allergenic sesquiterpene lactones from cushion bush (Leucophyta brownii Cass.): new and old sensitizers in a shrub-turned-a-pot plant
The Australian cushion bush ( Leucophyta brownii ) of the Compositae family of plants has become a popular pot and container plant. The plant produces the sesquiterpene lactone allergen calocephalin. The well-known sesquiterpene lactone pseudoivalin and its derivative pseudoivalin acetate, as well as calocephalin and tomentosin, were confirmed to be sensitizers, whereas leucophytalin A and 4?-hydroxy-5?H,10?H-1,11(13)-guaidien-8?,12-olide were shown to be allergenic for the first time.
The epidemic of methylisothiazolinone: a European prospective study
A total of 6.0% (205/3434; range 2.6–13.0%) of patients had positive patch test reactions to MI. Dermatitis most frequently affected the hands (43.4%), face (32.7%), arms (14.6%), and eyelids (11.7%); 12.7% had widespread dermatitis. For 72.7% (149/205), MI contact allergy was currently relevant mainly because of exposure to cosmetic products (83.2%; 124/149).
