Abstract:Recently we have encountered, quite independently, three cases of contact dermatitis due to the yellow aniline dye aminoazotoluene. This dye, which is readily soluble in fats and waxes, is a constituent in the red and green semi-solid inks used in a popular ball-pointed pen. It is also used in certain popular shoe polishes. We have been unable to trace any previous reference to cases of dermatitis caused by exposure to aminoazotoluene. In view of these findings patch tests were done using various colours of se… Show more
“…Current data analysis of the IVDK group shows that, despite their frequent use, contact allergies to skin markers are rare. This is consistent with the published literature, which only includes isolated cases of contact allergies to medical skin markers [ 1,2,[9][10][11][12] and nonmedical text markers (offi ce supply) [3][4][5][6][7][8][13][14][15][16][17] .…”

“…In 149 of these 453 patients (32.9 %), the patients' own materials were tested; (marker) pens were tested in three patients (total of eight patch tests; 0.0047 % of the entire collective) and were negative in each case. A PubMed literature search from 1953 to 2/2016 yielded 21 cases of allergic contact dermatitis caused by skin markers [1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15][16][17] , with different substances in the various products identifi ed as triggers (Table 1 ). These publications were case reports and not Abbr.…”
