First report of the effects of inhalation of rhodamine B, a red dye used in cosmetics and as a leak detector for motor fuel. 17 patients were exposed to aerosolised rhodamine B in a maintenance shop. The mean duration of exposure was 26min. 16 of the patients complained of acute symptoms: burning of the eyes, excessive tearing, nasal burning, nasal itching, pain or tightness in the chest, runny nose, cough, dyspnoea, burning of the throat, itch or burning of the skin, chest burning, headache and nausea (in decreasing order of frequency). The symptoms of all the patients resolved within 24h (in less than 4h in 63% of the cases). There was no evidence of serious sequelae. |
