Allergic contact dermatitis to ultra violet cured inks.

Abstract
Two employees of a factory using an automated screen printing process and ultraviolet cured inks to print onto plastic bottles developed an allergic contact dermatitis, principally on the face and periorbital areas. On patch testing a contact allergy was found to the ultraviolet cured ink UV 50-85, and its multifunctional acrylic monomer component, tripropylene glycol diacrylate.
