## Abstract Sensitization to arylamines such as p-phenylenediamine is frequently diagnosed in patients with allergic contact dermatitis. Reactive metabolites of p-phenylenediamine might be produced in the skin by O-acetylation of N-hydroxylamines catalysed by local N-acetyltransferases (NATs). In t
The acetylation polymorphism is a common inherited variation in human drug and carcinogen metabolism. Because Nacetyltransferase (NAT2) is important for the detoxification and/or bioactivation of drugs and carcinogens, polymorphisms of this gene have important implications in therapeutics of and sus
