Highlights After the introduction of the EU regulatory interventions, nickel sensitization decreased significantly in the group of females aged ≤25 years. Women born between 1966 and 1975 presented the higheest prevalence of sensitization to nickel, then prevalence of sensitization gradually decreased with a minimum in more recent years. Nickel sensitization is higher in Italian patients compared to people living in other EU coutries. Additional interventions are needed to address nickel sensitization.

Precipitation Gravimetry01:03

Precipitation Gravimetry

Precipitation gravimetry is based on converting an analyte into a sparingly soluble precipitate, which is separated by filtration and weighed. An ideal precipitate should be pure, insoluble, of known composition, and easily filtered from the reaction mixture.
In determining nickel by gravimetric analysis, a precipitant of ethanolic dimethylglyoxime is added to a hot nickel salt solution. This is quickly followed by the dropwise addition of dilute ammonia solution until precipitation occurs. A...
