[allergic contact dermatitis due to nitrile rubber gloves: ethyl isothiocyanate and butyl isothiocyanate as possible causative chemicals].
CONCLUSION: We diagnosed the patient with allergic contact dermatitis due to the EITC and BITC present in nitrile rubber gloves, and considered that alkyl isothiocyanate might also have played a causative role. We propose that nitrile rubber gloves should be produced without using vulcanization accelerators.
