Abstract
168 children, 14 years of age or younger, were patch tested with the Standard Series of the International Contact Dermatitis Research Group (ICDRG) over a 5-year period, 77 of the children had 1 or more positive reactions: relevant test results were found in 80% of them. 8 boys and 24 girls were allergic to nickle, which proved to be the most common allergen: 5 boys and 6 girls reacted to chromate, and 5 boys and 4 girls reacted to one or more of the rubber chemicals.Keywords
