N Yawalkar, A Helbling, CE Pichler, L Zala… - Annals of Allergy …, 1999 - Elsevier
BACKGROUND: Ammonium and potassium persulfates may induce a variety of cutaneous
and respiratory diseases. The precise underlying mechanisms, however, are unclear.
OBJECTIVE: To describe a hairdresser, who developed contact dermatitis, rhinoconjuntivitis,
and bronchial asthma of delayed onset after occupational exposure to hair bleaches
containing persulfate salts and to provide evidence for a common T-cell mediated
mechanism responsible for the clinical manifestations. METHODS: We performed skin …
