Sodium Benzoate as an Emerging but Problematic Allergen: Retrospective Analysis of Patch Test Results in 3198 Cases Underlines the Need for an Improved Test Preparation, as Even Dubious Reactions May Be Clinically Relevant. [PDF]
Contact DermatitisSodium benzoate is emerging as a preservative found most frequently in personal care products. It was positive in around 1.8% of a large series and should be included in the cheilitis/bakery, facial and fragrance patch test allergen series.

Thresholds for Contact Allergy to a Rubber Accelerator: TETD-Determined by Serial Dilution Patch Testing and a Simulated Glove-Use Model. [PDF]
Contact DermatitisThe doses of tetraethylthiuram disulfide (TETD) that elicit allergic contact dermatitis by patch testing and in a repeated occluded application test simulating glove use were investigated. The patch test dose of TETD that elicited allergic contact dermatitis in 10% of the patients (ED10) was estimated to be 0.75 μg/cm2 (the figure).
