Abstract

Abstract: Homemade "slime" is currently a popular childhood hobby that can cause allergic and irritant contact dermatitis. We describe a case of hand dermatitis due to homemade "slime" with a positive patch test to methylchloroisothiazolinone (MCI)/methylisothiazolinone (MI) and MI. The most common potential allergens in "slime" collected from a review of "slime" recipes found on the Internet are reviewed. Abstract : Linked Content This article is linked to Jacob paper.
