Sammanfattning
We report an outbreak of occupational contact dermatitis from an anaerobic sealant. This diagnosis was given to 12 out of 48 exposed workers at two Danish refrigerator factories. Six workers showed a positive patch test reaction to 2-hydroxypropyl methacrylate, a constituent of the sealant. Main causes were insufficient information from the producer and poor work place hygiene.
