The immunogenicity of starch glove powder and talc
The British Journal of Surgery
|November 1, 1976
Abstract:
An antigen responsible for cutaneous delayed hypersensitivity to starch glove powder in guinea-pigs was found to be associated with starch grains. Talc was not immunogenic in this system, and did not cross-react in skin tests with starch glove powder. Additives and protein components in the glove powder did not appear to be antigenic.
