| Abstract |
Results of dermatological examinations carried out in 119 workers in the rubber industry, exposed to sulfenamide Ts (N-cyclohexyl-2-benzothiazolsulfenamide), an accelerator of the vulcanisation process developed in the USSR. Of the workers examined 57 (or 47.8%) showed symptoms of occupationally-induced skin disease (folliculitis, acne, dermatitis, eczema, hyperpigmentation, etc.). The skin allergies observed developed against a background of early disease process involving the skin. Irritation of the mucosae of the upper respiratory tract was apparent in many cases. The sensitising effect of sulfenamide Ts was demonstrated by skin tests, serological reactions and morphological examinations. |
