Resumen |
Nine of 10 patients who developed dermatitis following contact with Holigarna ferruginea and 5 of 35 asymptomatic volunteers showed a positive patch test reaction to 2% W/V acetone extract of the plant's resinous exudate. Six albino rats were sensitised following 3 weekly applications of the same extract. Laccol (3-heptadecadienyl catechol) was identified as the active principle in the exudate. Plants of the genus Holigarna, a source of lacquer, may be an important cause of occupational dermatitis in India. |
