- Abstract
Findings in two persons with allergic contact dermatitis to slimicides used in the paper industry are presented. Both subjects worked as technical sales consultants and visited paper mills. They would come into occasional contact with solutions containing biocides during servicing and sampling activities and were aware of a skin eruption affecting the flexural wrists, anterior thighs and ankles when they were in contact with certain biocides. Only one subject was allergic to Kathon.
