โœฆ Synopsis


SUMMARY

A 49โ€yearโ€old man developed a widespread eczematous eruption following contact with plants sprayed with a fungicide. Patch testing revealed a strong reaction to thiuram mix and several of the individual thiuram mix constituents. The fungicide contained tetramethylthiuram disulphide, a thiuram chemical. Thiurams are widely recognized as a cause of rubberโ€glove allergy; however, they are also used extensively in fungicides.
