Children With Aluminium Contact Allergy: Cutaneous Exposure Study

Aluminium is used in many different cosmetic products, including make-up, deodorants and sunscreen. The purpose of this study is to investigate whether these everyday skin products with small amounts of aluminium can cause skin reactions in children diagnosed with contact allergy to aluminium. The study is conducted as a Repeated Open Application Test study (ROAT), a method originally developed to clarify the clinical relevance of questionable and positive patch samples, by imitating everyday use of a skin product.
