An epidemic of allergic contact dermatitis caused by a new allergen, caprylhydroxamic acid, in moisturizers.

abstract：:Among 1511 consecutive patients patch tested with Kathon CG at 100 ppm active ingredient, 13 (0.8%) gave a positive reaction. Use test with a lotion containing Kathon CG (8.6 ppm) revealed no reaction in 11 patients with a positive patch test. It is concluded that a positive patch test reaction to 100 ppm does not ini...
