"Kumkums" are coloured cosmetics frequently applied to the center of the forehead by Hindu women. Pigmented allergic contact dermatitis to "kumkum" was reported recently. It was associated with Brilliant Lake Red R and Sudan I allergy. These might be the causative allergens. Three of 7 brands of red "kumkums" analyzed by gas chromatography-mass spectrophotometry were found to contain various concentrations of Sudan I. They ranged from 2.789 mg/gm to 8.694 mg/gm. Sudan I is probably the cause of pigmented allergic contact dermatitis in red "kumkum".
“朱砂痣”是印度教女性经常涂在前额中央的彩色化妆品。最近有报告称，对“朱砂痣”发生了色素性过敏性接触性皮炎。它与亮湖红R和苏丹红I过敏有关。这些可能是致病过敏原。通过气相色谱 - 质谱分析法分析的7个品牌的红色“朱砂痣”中，有3个被发现含有不同浓度的苏丹红I。其含量范围为2.789毫克/克至8.694毫克/克。苏丹红I可能是红色“朱砂痣”中色素性过敏性接触性皮炎的病因。
