The complexation reactions between Cu2+, Pd2+ and Ni2+ metal ions with promethazine (PM) in water or DMF were studied by the spectrophotometric methods at [(15, 25,35 and 45±0.1) °C]. The complexation process was optimized in terms of pH, temperature and contact time. The stoichiometry of the complex was found to be 1:1 (metal ion/ligand). The formation constants of the resulting complexes were...

Concerns over allergic reactions to dental restorative and orthodontic materials have increased in the past few years. The incidence appears to be quite low, but increases with increased quantity and duration of exposure to a causative antigen. In most instances intraoral allergies result in a type IV, delayed contact response that may manifest in various ways including lichenoid reactions, bur...

Hypersensitivity to rubber is usually reported as contact dermatitis due to substances used in its processing; however, recent reports in patients attribute IgE mediated reactions specifically to latex and not to chemical additives. These patients were first seen with contact urticaria, but tissue contact with both medical and non-medical latex rubber may also precipitate anaphylactic reactions...

Skin reactions following the application of electrocardiography (ECG) electrodes have been reported in adults and children, and are postulated to result from contact with the conductive gel or adhesive used on the electrodes. Although contact dermatitis is the usual cause of such reactions, contact depigmentation or hypopigmentation may also occur. We report a case of hypopigmentation in a heal...

the complexation reactions between cu2+, pd2+ and ni2+ metal ions with promethazine (pm) in water or dmf were studied by the spectrophotometric methods at [(15, 25,35 and 45±0.1) °c]. the complexation process was optimized in terms of ph, temperature and contact time. the stoichiometry of the complex was found to be 1:1 (metal ion/ligand). the formation constants of the resulting complexes were...

Contact dermatitis after the application of temporary, paint-on, henna tattoos represents a well-known, potentially serious problem of active sensitization. We describe 3 cases involving 3 children of the same age who developed a severe contact dermatitis with massive face and neck swelling after application of black henna to their hair during "Purim" celebrations. All 3 cases had a history of ...

BACKGROUND The panel of patch test allergens used for the evaluation of patients with suspected photoallergy typically does not include plant and pesticide allergens. The prevalence of allergic contact dermatitis and photoallergic contact dermatitis to plant and pesticide allergens was determined for this subgroup of patients. OBSERVATION Positive reactions were detected in 12 of 26 patients ...
