Specific bronchial provocation tests in occupational asthma and methods of stimulation: case report.
The AA. describe two cases of occupational asthma in the wood industry. Bronchial provocations tests (BPT) showed that the sensitizing agents were not only TDI, but also the "base" of the painting system used in the varnishing. The AA. discuss on the method of stimulation in performing BPT.
