Sensitisation data (human)
Administrative data
- Endpoint:
- sensitisation data (humans)
- Type of information:
- other: case report
- Adequacy of study:
- supporting study
- Reliability:
- 4 (not assignable)
- Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
- other: This is a case report. As such, a publication in a journal dedicated to publication of case reports, is not evidence of a causal relationship between adverse effect and chemical exposure.

Method
- Type of population:
- occupational
- Ethical approval:
- not applicable
- Subjects:
- one case
- Route of administration:
- dermal
- Details on study design:
- Poorly defined exposure to chemical subtance(s).
Results and discussion
- Results of examinations:
- 48-72 hours after presumed cutaneous exposure to chemicals, the worker developed severe dermatitis with secondary eczematization, and nausea and light-headedness. The systemic symptoms resolved over 48 additional hours, while the dermatitis took a week to resolve. He underwent clinical patch testing to a variety of chemicals, including 2VP in methyl ethyl ketone at 0.1%, 0.5%, and1%. The tested positive to the two higher concentrations, but not to the 0.1% concentration.
Applicant's summary and conclusion
- Conclusions:
- This is a report of a case of reversible contact dermatitis in a chemical factory worker exposed via skin to 2-vinylpyridine. Systemic symptoms (nausea and lightheadedness) occurring 48-72 hours after the exposure most likely are unrelated to the chemical exposure.
Information on Registered Substances comes from registration dossiers which have been assigned a registration number.
