Abstract
7 subjects, each giving a history suggesting dandelion dermatitis, were patch tested with extracts of dandelion as well us with other common members of the Compositae and to the sesquiterpene‐lactone‐ mix. All were positive to dandelion Extracts but only 2 reacted to the sesquiterpenes‐lactonemix. Alhough the mix is it useful screening test for chrysanthemum dermatitis, it may miss dandelion allergy.Keywords
