“…A thorough assessment of the patient's nickel exposures, both at the workplace and at home, is important. Recently, a standard operational procedure for evaluating the relevance of nickel occupational exposure in cases of hand eczema was suggested . Patient education about possible nickel sources and instruction in the use of the DMG test for items in direct skin contact is recommended to limit exposure .…”

“…Recently, a standard operational procedure for evaluating the relevance of nickel occupational exposure in cases of hand eczema was suggested. 233 Patient education about possible nickel sources and instruction in the use of the DMG test for items in direct skin contact is recommended to limit exposure. 157 The use of protective gloves can be effective in the industrial setting, 234 although nickel may penetrate rubber gloves.…”

“…The authors concluded that the clinical relevance of occupational exposure to nickel can only be assessed if workplace measurements are possible. More recently, Wennervaldt et al demonstrated the presence of nickel in metallic items in the workplace and in nurse's hands after 30 minutes of normal work using the dimetyhylglyoxime test. Our study confirmed a significant increase in nickel sensitization in female nurses compared to clerks.…”

“…Wie zu erwarten ist Nickel ein wichtiges Berufs-Kontaktallergen in den USA, wo die Nickelexposition nicht reguliert ist [16]. Auf strukturierte Weise zu prüfen, womit ein Patient in Berührung gekommen ist, könnte dazu beitragen, wichtige Expositionsquellen zu identifizieren [17]. Spot-Tests mittels Dimethylglyoxim (DMG), eventuell mit einem elektrochemischen Gerät für höhere Standardisierung [18], sind unverzichtbar für die Ermittlung der individuellen Exposition.…”
