Evaluation of the sesquiterpenlactone mix with regard to the effect of allergy on the reduction of the ability to work:
- The sesquiterpenlactone mix consists of equal parts of the three plant ingredients alantolactone, costunolide and dehydrocostunolide. With the composite mix, it is used for the detection of contact allergy to sesquiterpene lactones, which are mainly found in wild and ornamental species of the Aster family; in addition, the composite mix contains other plant contact allergens that do not belong to the sesquiterpene lactone group.
- Relevant occupational exposures: see also Composite mix.
- Effect of allergy: S.u. Composite Mix.
