Abstract

Sweat and household detergents were shown to have the capacity to release nickel from stainless steel. This finding substantiates the thesis that the American-style stainless steel kitchen and other stainless steel commodities can be sources of skin contact allergy with nickel. Furthermore, a negative spot test (DMG) does not reflect the "safety" of a nickel alloy.
