Abstract

The clinical manifestations of hypersensitivity in 20 patients, working in an antibiotic industry in contact with antibiotic powder were studied immunologically.

Statistica analysis of the data by using Chi-square shows highly signifcant increase in the level of (IgG, IgM, IgA and IgE) Antibodies than the normal ranges(table1, figures 1, 2 and 3).

It was concluding that increased reactivity to an antibiotic powder most likely reflects an allergic response rather than, increased genuine skin susceptibility.
