In order to find sensitizers additional to the current fragrance mix (FM) a series of fragrance materials (series II) was evaluated in 6 dermatological centres in Europe. 11 of the test materials were essential oils, the remaining 7 being either mixtures of isomers or simple chemicals of frequent usage in the perfume industry. 1606 patients were consecutively tested with series II and 8% FM. Each patient was classified regarding a history of adverse reactions to scented products: certain, probable, questionable, none. Reactions to FM occurred most frequently in 11.4% of the subjects. The 6 materials with the highest reactivity after the FM were ylang-ylang oil (YY) I (2.6%), YY II (2.5%), lemongrass oil (1.6%), narcissus absolute (1.3%), jasmine absolute (1.2%) and sandalwood oil (0.9%). 48 (3.0%) of the patients reacted only to materials of series II and not to FM. 6.0% of 1606 patients gave a history of adverse reactions to fragrances which was classified as certain. This group reacted to FM only in 22.9%, to series II and FM in 15.6% and to series II only in 5.2%. 63.5% of the patients reacting to both FM and 1 of the materials of series II had some type of positive fragrance history, which was higher in comparison to those with isolated reactions to FM (46.2% of 121) or to series II, respectively, (45.8% of 48). However, this difference was not statistically significant. In conclusion, the materials of series II identified a further subset of patients with a fragrance problem, which would have been missed by the current FM as the single screening tool for patch testing.
为了找到当前香料混合物(FM)之外的致敏原,一系列香料材料(系列II)在欧洲的6个皮肤科中心进行了评估。测试材料中有11种是香精油,其余7种是异构体混合物或香料工业中常用简单化学品。1606名患者连续接受系列II和8%FM测试。根据对香薰产品不良反应史对每位患者进行分类:确定、可能、可疑、无。对FM的反应最常发生在11.4%的受试者中。FM之后反应性最高的6种材料是依兰油(YY)I(2.6%)、YY II(2.5%)、柠檬草油(1.6%)、水仙净油(1.3%)、茉莉净油(1.2%)和檀香油(0.9%)。48名(3.0%)患者仅对系列II的材料有反应,而对FM无反应。1606名患者中有6.0%有对香料的不良反应史,被归类为确定。该组仅对FM有反应的占22.9%,对系列II和FM都有反应的占15.6%,仅对系列II有反应的占5.2%。对FM和系列II中的一种材料都有反应的患者中,63.5%有某种类型的阳性香料史,这一比例高于分别对FM(121例中的46.2%)或系列II(48例中的45.8%)有孤立反应的患者。然而,这种差异无统计学意义。总之,系列II的材料识别出了另一组有香料问题的患者,而当前的FM作为斑贴试验的单一筛查工具会遗漏这些患者。
