title: Kathon CG reactivity in 1396 consecutively patch tested patients in the Copenhagen area.
abstract: In 1396 consecutively patch tested patients 18 (1.3%) reacted to Kathon CG. Relevance was established in 4 of the 18 patients. The frequency of positive reactions to Kathon CG in eczema patients seems to have been stable in Denmark during the period 1983 to 1988.
