Abstract:
The results of 10 years of patch testing with standard allergens are reported. An increase of sensitivity was found in nickel. Sensitivity to chromate had decreased. Sex and age differences in the incidence of allergy to metals were analysed. Nickel allergy appeared to be more common among women and was of most importance in the younger age groups.
