Tertiary butyl catechol (TBC), an antioxidant in phototypesetting paper, caused allergic contact dermatitis in several newspaper production workers. Five of eight tested workers had strong positive tests to the paper and to 0.1 percent TBC. Only one had subsequent hypopigmentation. The newspaper agency where they work now uses a product which contains no TBC. Sensitized workers have remained free of dermatitis unless exposed to advertising copy from outside sources.
叔丁基儿茶酚（TBC）是照相排版纸中的一种抗氧化剂，导致数名报纸生产工人发生过敏性接触性皮炎。在接受检测的八名工人中，有五人对该纸张和0.1%的TBC呈强阳性反应。只有一人随后出现色素减退。他们目前工作的报社现在使用的产品不含TBC。致敏工人除非接触外部来源的广告文案，否则不会再患皮炎。
