Abstract
The non-ionic emulsifier nonoxynol-6 found in an industrial waterless hand cleanser induced allergic contact dermatitis on the upper extremities of a uranium mill maintenance worker. The chemical is an irritant for the rabbit. It was not shown to be a cutaneous sensitizer for the albino guinea pig using the guinea pig maximization test.Keywords
