There are two main sensitization reactions-immedi-ate and delayed hypersensitivity. Immediate type hypersensitivity is the result of antibody-allergen interaction occurring in the skin the reaction that develops is known as allergic contact urticaria. Delayed type hypersensitivity is the result of cell-mediated immunity and is the most frequently reported side effect of topical drugs. Both epidermal and dermal cells play pivotal roles in irritation and sensitization. Keratinocytes... [Pg.1315]

Allergic contact urticaria has been attributed to amoxicillin (148). [Pg.2761]

Schirmer et al. (1987) described one baker with dermatitis. He had positive skin-prick tests to a-amylase and various bread improvers. The immediate test reaction to a-amylase persisted for 48 h. A patch test with a-amylase was also positive, as well as radioallergosorbent test (RAST) to a-amylase, malt and bread improvers. We had a patient with occupational allergic contact urticaria from fungal but not bacterial a-amylase (Kanerva et al. 1997). Accordingly, enzymes with the same function and the same name may have different antigenic characteristics. When reporting about enzyme allergy, it is important to reveal details of the causative enzymes. [Pg.519]

Despite the increasingly more frequent reports of allergic contact dermatitis (ACD) to natural latex, the exact chemical nature of the allergen(s) remains unknown. In contrast, proteins present in latex obtained from the Hevea brasiliensis tree are the cause of the immunoglobulin (Ig)E-mediated hypersensiti-vity/allergic contact urticaria (ACU) to natural latex rubber. Since Hevea brasiliensis accounts for more than 99% of natural rubber used worldwide, ACU to latex is a significant problem. [Pg.702]

Of 100,000 employed persons, 28.9 butchers and sausage makers had contact urticaria (Kanerva et al. 1996). The specific cause of the urticaria among butchers was not listed, but in nine of all 815 patients with contact urticaria who participated in the study, the cause was pork. The study does not list the occupation of these nine persons. Northern Europe is an area in which there is large-scale production and consumption of pork. The studies mentioned here suggest that allergic contact urticaria caused by pork is rare even among persons with extensive occupational contact with this meat. [Pg.850]
