Panels of allergens for specific occupations.
It is important to have available panels of materials for patch testing patients working in specific occupations. Although it is not essential in every case to test with each substance listed on a given panel, careful consideration of the patient's work environment should suggest the specific test items that will provide the highest diagnostic yield in cases of allergic contact dermatitis.
