“…Allergic reactions towards ingredients of protective gloves, e. g. allergic contact urticaria to natural rubber latex or allergic contact dermatitis to thiuram compounds and dithiocarbamates, have frequently been reported in the literature. These intolerance reactions are usually observed for protective gloves made of natural rubber latex or nitrile; allergic reactions towards vinyl gloves are, in contrast, rare [6–10]. In addition, in judging intolerance reactions towards gloves unspecific irritant effects due to occlusion must be taken into consideration.…”

A 44-year-old metalworker suffered from severe hand eczema in spite of treatment with corticosteroid ointments. He had been using protective cotton gloves with blue PVC anti-slip dots on the finger tips. On clinical examination, the backs of both hands were erythematous and thickened while the finger tips showed vesicles. There was a positive patch test reaction to the blue PVC dots of an unworn cotton glove at 72, 96, 120 hours. To identify the causative chemicals, we carried out further patch tests using ingredients of the glove and cupric sulfate. The patient reacted to the blue dye VYNAMON(®) Blue BX FW (PB 15) at two concentrations - 10% at 72 and 96 hours, and 50% at 48 and 72 hours. This dye is a very strong and brilliant blue with red-copper tones and resistant to fire and weathering. The cupric-phthalocyanine complexes are used as pigments in cosmetics (e. g. CI 74160, 74180, 74260). To the best of our knowledge, no allergic reactions to this dye have been described, particularly not in gloves.

“…In past examinations of contact allergy to PVC gloves, the specific causative allergens have often remained unknown. Several cases of bisphenol A allergy 1,2 and single cases caused by an organic pigment 3 and adipic polyester 4 have been reported, but to our knowledge, there are no previous case reports of allergic contact dermatitis from any antimicrobial substance in PVC gloves. Gloves made of PVC also contain phthalates that are potential allergens.…”

“…The skin tests of the 3 most recent cases of allergic reaction to BIT (patients [2][3][4] were not yet in the skin test files, but we nevertheless analyzed their medical records in the same way. (These patients were not yet in the file when analysis took place because the test results of a patient are not put into the file until the examination is complete and the report sent to the insurance company.)…”
