  • Title: Occupational asthma induced by tall oil in the rubber tyre industry.
    Author: Tarlo SM.
    Journal: Clin Exp Allergy; 1992 Jan; 22(1):99-101. PubMed ID: 1551039.
    Abstract:
    A worker in the rubber tyre industry is described with occupational asthma from exposure to a solution of tall oil, a pine resin, confirmed by specific inhalation challenge. This supports studies of contact dermatitis which have suggested abietic and dehydroabietic acid oxidants to be the cause of colophony induced allergic reactions.
