  • Title: Radioallergosorbent testing with p-tolyl monoisocyanate in toluene diisocyanate workers.
    Author: Butcher BT, O'Neil CE, Reed MA, Salvaggio JE.
    Journal: Clin Allergy; 1983 Jan; 13(1):31-4. PubMed ID: 6299614.
    Abstract:
    Sera from 149 occupationally exposed toluene diisocyanate (TDI) workers were tested by RAST with p-tolyl monoisocyanate human serum albumin (TMI-HSA). Of the seven positives, one had a history suggestive of TDI asthma and one had a rash which may have been TDI related. These results indicate that false positive RAST with TMI-HSA may occur in asymptomatic workers.
