Abstract |
This study investigated sensitization to ten frequently-used metalworking fluid (MWF) components, which are not part of the established MWF test series, in metalworkers with suspected occupational dermatitis due to MWF. Seven patients reacted positively to 4,4'-methylene bis morpholine, including six who also reacted to formaldehyde and/or other formaldehyde releasers. Four patients reacted positively to myristyl alcohol. Additionally, 20 doubtful or irritant reactions occurred. One patient each reacted positively to oleyl alcohol, monoisopropanolamine and 2-amino-2-ethyl- 1,3-propanediol. None of the other substances tested elicited any clear-cut positive reaction. Patch testing with well-known MWF allergens showed proportions of positive reactions, which were comparable to those from other studies, e.g. 11 % to monoethanolamine, 8% to colophony and 3-5% to various preservatives. |
