title: ROAT: morphology of ROAT on arm, neck and face in formaldehyde and diazolidinyl urea sensitive individuals.
abstract: The morphology of early allergic contact dermatitis reactions was studied in formaldehyde allergic individuals exposed to a cream product preserved with 4 different concentrations of diazolidinyl urea. The study was made using a dose-escalating design in 3 different anatomical regions, the upper arm, neck and face. On the arm and neck, the dominant initial morphology was an eczematous papular eruption. In the face, the initial skin changes were more homogeneous and infiltrated erythema.
