Results and discussion

Results of examinations:
In this publication, the authors reported different cases of contact dermatitis caused by amido amines derivatives used in cosmetic products. Several experiments (patch-tests) found in literature and discussed in this paper confirm that the presence of 3-dimethylaminopropylamine (a feedstock found as an impurity) could be hypothesized to explain these allergic reactions.
