Allergic contact dermatitis from methylene‐bis‐benzotriazolyl tetramethylbutylphenol (Tinosorb M^®)

Sunscreens: An overview and update

“…14 Because of their relatively large size, Tinosorb filters rarely cause allergic contact dermatitis, systemic absorption, or endocrine-like effects. 26,105 Uvasorb HEB (diethylhexyl butamido triazone) is another UVA agent presently under FDA review. Neo Heliopan AP (bisdisulizole disodium) and Uvinul A Plus are other promising prospects which will likely be considered by the FDA in the future.…”

Photoallergy

“…Emerging photoallergens include drometrizole and Tinosorb M ® (28,84,(91)(92)(93)(94)(95). Tinosorb M, an efficient sunscreen using microfine particle technology, provides UV absorption by a photostable organic molecule as well as light scattering and light reflection by its microfine structure (96).…”

The Interest in Nanomaterials for Topical Photoprotection

“…From the point of view of its harmlessness, very rare cases of allergies and/or photo-allergies [37][38][39] can be noted, occurring a few years after it was launched on the market. The particles of bisoctrizole are stabilized by a surfactant called decyl glucoside.…”
