Contact sensitivity to 2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate in consecutive patients: a one-year multicenter SIDAPA study

Acrylates and methacrylates, here referred to as (meth)acrylates, are reactive monomers that polymerize into polymer plastics (1). They are well known sensitizers in occupational (e.g. dental materials) (2) and non-occupational settings (e.g. dressings and wound care products) (3). This article is protected by copyright.
