title: Occupational dermatitis from dibutyl maleinate.
abstract: 10 of 20 workers in an envelope-making factory developed contact dermatitis. The cause was dibutyl maleinate, which was added to a polyvinylacetate glue. Dibutyl maleinate is a strong sensitizer and should be withdrawn from industrial use.
