  2. Potassium dichromate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Potassium_dichromate

    In 2005–06, potassium dichromate was the 11th-most-prevalent allergen in patch tests (4.8%). [12] Potassium dichromate is one of the most common causes of chromium dermatitis; [13] chromium is highly likely to induce sensitization leading to dermatitis, especially of the hand and forearms, which is chronic and difficult to treat ...

  3. Patch test - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Patch_test

    A patch test relies on the principle of a type IV hypersensitivity reaction.. The first step in becoming allergic is sensitization. When skin is exposed to an allergen, the antigen-presenting cells (APCs) – also known as Langerhans cell or Dermal Dendritic Cell – phagocytize the substance, break it down to smaller components and present them on their surface bound major histocompatibility ...

    Zenker is usually made with 50g of mercuric chloride, 25g of potassium dichromate, 10g of sodium sulfate (decahydrate) and distilled water to complete 1000 ml. Before use, 5 ml glacial acetic acid is added to 100 ml of the solution. Both the stock solution and the complete Zenker fixative are stable for many years.
