Ascertainment of hand dermatitis using a symptom-based questionnaire; applicability in an industrial population.

abstract：:Some methacrylates are known to be strong contact sensitizers. To determine the effect of side-chain length on sensitizing potential, we examined 11 derivatives with linear side chains from C1 to C18 in an experimental sensitization test in guinea pigs. The results showed an increase in the sensitizing potential with ...
