“…Irritant contact dermatitis is slightly more frequent than allergic contact dermatitis (12). Less frequent manifestations include the following: prurigo-like, purpuric lesions, hyperpigmentated patches and papular, papulopustular lesions, with more atypical forms being erythema multiforme-like lesions, nummular-like lesions, lichenifications and erythrodermia, even lymphomatoid dermatitis (1,13,22,23). Practitioners must always be in awareness because of various clinical presentations.…”

Background. According to our knowledge, there are no official medical statistics about skin problems of Lithuanian textile workers. The aim of the study is to evaluate work related skin problems in this occupational field, their character, and what alterations if any can be carried out.Materials and methods. A self-reported anonymous survey was carried out in 12 randomly selected textile factories from 6 cities of Lithuania in 2013-2014. Data were analyzed by SPSS v21.0.Results. 91% of all the employees (551) were females with the mean experience in textile industry of 14.2 years (SD 7.2). The majority (63%) of the respondents were sewing machine operators. The most commonly mentioned risk factors were textile (89.7%) and dust (36.8%) containing different chemical substances that we did not analyze in our study. 83.1% of the respondents had no air conditioning systems at their working place. Atopic skin diseases were declared by 165(30%) workers. 208(37.7%) participants complained about skin problems. Dermatological treatment was received by 190(91.4%) respondents (topical corticosteroids, antibiotics and emollients) and was effective in 74.7% of all cases. Almost all of the respondents (97%) declared having no training about occupational skin problems and skin protection measures during apprenticeship, though 59% of them pointed out it would be desirable. Still, the usage of emollients at work is rather high -76.6%.Conclusions. Our study highlighted that improvement is needed in pre-occupational councelling and working conditions.

“…[8] Jeans and bathing suits are made of synthetic textile using disperse dye and physical activity causes increased production of sweat and friction, resulting in the risk of sensitization and elicitation of Contact Allergy Dermatitis. [9] Softening agent (SA) is an ingredient in detergents containing cationic surfactants. The detergent will turn into positively charged particles when dissolved in water, typically used as a softener.…”

Atopic dermatitis is a chronic skin disease that most commonly occurs in children. The research aimed at investigating the para-phenylenenediamine (PPD) content on the textile material of the disperse blue 106 which was given the softening agent (SA). The research was conducted Biopharmaco-Laboratory of the Research Activity Centre Building, Hasanuddin University, Makassar as the place of the UV-VIS Spectrophotometer examination. The research used the experimental method to find out PPD content in the clothes textile material soaked in SA. The research result indicates that PPD content in the clothes textile material using SA is higher than the aquadest, and there is PPD increase content released by SA in line with the textile material soaking duration.

Clinical and epidemiological features of textile contact dermatitis:an Italian multicentre study

Abstract: Some strategies (sensitization potential of new textile chemicals, more stable dyes, reduced levels of formaldehyde in clothing, and collaboration with textile industry and trade associations) should be adopted to decrease the TCD incidence and update the textile patch testing series.
