This study identifies eosin as the cause of allergic reactions to topical preparations. A patient showed a positive patch test to pure tetrabromofluorescein, indicating eosin sensitization.

Area of Science:

  • Dermatology
  • Allergology
  • Toxicology

Background:

  • Topical preparations can cause adverse skin reactions.
  • Identifying specific allergens is crucial for patient management.

Observation:

  • A patient presented with suspected sensitization to a component in topical preparations.
  • Patch testing was performed using tetrabromofluorescein and its separated impurities.

Findings:

  • The patient exhibited a positive patch test reaction exclusively to pure tetrabromofluorescein.
  • Reactions to impurities were negative, suggesting eosin as the primary sensitizer.

Implications:

  • Eosin should be considered a potential contact allergen in dermatology.
