1 Contact Dermatitis Original Article COD Contact Dermatitis Recommendation to include methylisothiazolinone in the European baseline patch test series on behalf of the European Society of Contact Dermatitis and the European Environmental and Contact Dermatitis Research Group Magnus Bruze 1, Malin Engfeldt 1, Margarida Gonçalo 2 and An Goossens 3 1 Department of Occupational and Environmental Dermatology, Skåne University Hospital, Lund University, Malmö, Sweden, 2 Department of Dermatology, Faculty of Medicine and University Hospital, Coimbra, Portugal, and 3 Department of Dermatology, Contact Allergy Unit, University Hospital KU Leuven, Leuven, Belgium doi: /cod Summary Background. Methylisothiazolinone (MI) is used as a preservative in occupational and household products, and cosmetics. It is a part of the preparation of methylchloroisothiazolinone (MCI)/MI, which is patch tested in water in the European baseline series. However, this preparation fails to detect a significant percentage of allergic contact reactions to MI. Objectives. To investigate whether a separate test preparation with MI should be included in the European baseline series. Methods. Literature survey. Results. In consecutively tested dermatitis patients, the contact allergy rate for MI varies between 0.6% and 6%, with a marked increase in recent years. The contact allergy rate for MI alone, not detected with MCI/MI, varies between 0% and 1.6%. Most cases are relevant, as shown by repeated open application test studies, and are mainly related to exposure from cosmetic products. Conclusions. Owing to the increase in contact allergy to MI not detected with MCI/MI, it is recommended that MI in water at 2000 ppm be included in the European baseline series. With the Finn Chamber (diameter, 8 mm) technique, a volume of 15 μl should be applied, giving a dose of 60 μg/cm 2.

Accepted for publication 11 August 2013 concentrations of test preparations (1). For the European baseline patch test series, the responsibility for this process has been delegated to the European Environmental and Contact Dermatitis Research Group by the European Society of Contact Dermatitis. Another recent modification of the European baseline series is the increase in the concentration (actually dose/cm 2 skin) of formaldehyde to 2% aqua (2). In 2008, fragrance mix II in petrolatum at 14% and hydroxyisohexyl 3-cyclohexene carboxaldehyde in pet. at 5% were included in the baseline series (3). The Contact Dermatitis, 69,
2 preservative methyldibromo glutaronitrile in pet. at 0.5% was included in 2005 (4); however, since 2008, there has been a total ban on the use of methyldibromo glutaronitrile in cosmetics in the EU. This prohibition has led to a decrease in the frequency of contact allergy to it, but there has been an increase in the frequency of allergy to the 3:1 mixture of methylchloroisothiazolinone (MCI)/methylisothiazolinone (MI) (5 7). Additionally, since 2005, MI by itself has been permitted in cosmetics; MI is a less potent sensitizer than MCI, but is also less active as a preservative, and higher concentrations are needed for preservation; up to 100 ppm in leave-on and rinse-off cosmetics is permitted. With the widespread use of this moderate sensitizer in higher concentrations, a rise in contact allergy to MI is currently being observed in European countries. Currently, based on the current literature, inclusion of MI in the European baseline test series is recommended. MI background Since the early 1980s, preservatives based on the combination of MCI and MI at a ratio of 3:1 have been used in industrial products, household products, and cosmetics; contact allergy to it has been important in recent decades. MI alone was introduced into industrial products in the early 2000s, and in 2005 it was allowed as a preservative in cosmetics at a maximum concentration of 100 ppm (8); there has been an increase in its use since then (9, 10). The first reports on contact allergy to and allergic contact dermatitis caused by MI appeared in 1987 (11) and 2004 (12), respectively, with the first report concerning cosmetics appearing in 2010 (13). Sensitization potency In 1987, MI was reported to be a weak sensitizer in the guinea-pig (14), but was classified as a strong sensitizer in the local lymph node assay (15). Risk assessment Besides knowledge about sensitization potency, exposure conditions (16) are decisive in the risk assessment regarding the induction of sensitization and the subsequent development of allergic contact dermatitis. A recent US safety assessment of MI concluded that cosmetic products formulated to contain concentrations of MI of 100 ppm would not be expected to pose a sensitization risk. Accordingly, MI was considered to be safe when used as a preservative in cosmetics up to that concentration (17). Many products intended for occupational and domestic use may be preserved with chemicals containing MI. Examples of preservatives containing MI are listed in Table 1. Contact allergy Contact allergy to MI has been reported in consecutively tested dermatitis patients in Sweden, Denmark, Germany, Finland, and the United Kingdom (Table 2) (6 7, 9, 18 20, DI Orton, CM Willis, pers. comm. 2013). All centres except the German ones have only used water as vehicle for MI, with concentrations varying between 200 and 2000 ppm. The contact allergy rates reported vary between 0.5% and 6%. The highest rates are reported from the United Kingdom, where an increase was seen in Amersham from 2.5% in 2009 to 6.0% in 2011 (DI Orton, CM Willis, pers. comm. 2013), and an increase in Leeds from 0.6% in 2009 to 4.6% in 2012 (7). In Denmark an increase was seen from 1.4% in 2009 to 3.1% in 2011 (21). Aimed testing of MI has been performed in Germany, where MI has been tested at 500 ppm in pet. and water (6, 22). This testing identified an increasing rate of contact allergy to MI, from 0.5% before 2009 to 4.4% in A male predominance has been reported from the United Kingdom (DI Orton, CM Willis, pers. comm. 2013), Denmark (19), Germany (22), and Sweden (18). For many years, MCI/MI has been part of the European baseline series (3). Most clinics test with it at 100 ppm, although 200 ppm has been used in Sweden since 1986 (23), in Spain since the late 1980s (24), and in the United Kingdom since the 2000s (DI Orton, CM Willis, pers. comm. 2013, 7). The number of additional cases with contact allergy to MI detected by testing with MI simultaneously with testing with MCI/MI at 200 or 100 ppm in a baseline series varies between 0% and 1.6% for 200 ppm and between 0.5% and 0.8% for 100 ppm (Table 2). In the two German reports on aimed testing, the rate of additional contact allergy to MI, excluding those with a simultaneous contact allergy to MCI/MI, is %. Cross-reactivity In patients allergic to MI, contact allergy seems to represent two routes of sensitization. Previously, the most common was sensitization to MCI with crossreactions to MI; however, the most recent data show that MI is now the primary sensitizer in most cases. Interestingly, the cross-reaction pattern seems to differ according to whether MI is the primary or secondary sensitizer. There are both human and animal studies supporting this (11, 14, 18, 26, 27). With chlorinated (monochlorinated and dichlorinated) MI as the sensitizer in guinea-pig maximization tests, no cross-reactions with MI and octylisothiazolinone were noted (Fig. 1). 264 Contact Dermatitis, 69,

Crossreactivity with octylisothiazolinone is more likely with MI as the primary sensitizer, as octylisothiazolinone is chemically more closely related to MI than to MCI (26). Regardless of the possible different cross-reaction patterns for MCI and MI, we advise all individuals with contact allergy to MI to avoid/minimize exposure to products containing the preservatives listed in Table 1, in order to allow the dermatitis to heal and to avoid relapses of dermatitis.

Allergic contact dermatitis In the listed articles in Table 2, some information is given on the clinical relevance, which, on the whole, is considered to be very high. Occupational exposure is dominated by MI in paints (28, 29), whereas non-occupational exposure is dominated by MI in cosmetics and household products. Individual cases of allergic contact dermatitis caused by MI have been reported in painters (9, 12), from a waist reduction belt (30), from cosmetics, and particularly from wet wipes for intimate hygiene (13), hair cosmetics, facial cosmetics (9, 19), deodorants (31), and sunscreens (10). Airborne allergic contact dermatitis and systemic contact dermatitis have been attributed to MI release from recently painted walls (21, 32) and from a toilet cleaner (33). Usage tests A repeated open application test (ROAT) with MI at 100, 50 and 5 ppm in an aqueous vehicle with 10% ethanol and 0.4% phenoxyethanol was performed in 11 individuals who were hypersensitive to MI; 64% reacted to 100 and 50 ppm, and 18% also reacted to 5 ppm (35). Thirty-two MI-allergic patients participated in a ROAT with two skin care lotions containing 100 and 0 ppm, respectively. The lotions were applied twice daily for 1 week. Thirty per cent of the patients gave a positive ROAT result, and all of them were also allergic to MCI/MI (21). 268 Contact Dermatitis, 69,
7 Recommended test preparation To justify the inclusion of a substance in a baseline series, the contact allergy rate should be expected to be at least 0.5 1%, with a high degree of clinical relevance (1). MI fulfils the clinical relevance requirement, with a high degree of clinical relevance in the reports on contact allergy in consecutively tested dermatitis patients (6 7, 18 20, DI Orton, CM Willis, pers. comm. 2013) and case reports (9, 10, 12, 13, 19, 30, 31), as well as positive results in controlled and randomized ROATs (19, 20). Rates of contact allergy to MI exceed 1%, so the prevalence requirement is also fulfilled. However, not only the crude rate of contact allergy to MI should be considered, but also the additional contribution to the testing with MCI/MI already present in the European baseline series. Against this background, it may appear questionable to recommend inclusion of MI in the baseline series, particularly for those clinics testing MCI/MI at 200 ppm, as the percentage of missed MI allergies was below 0.5% until the recent UK report, where 1.6% of allergies were missed (7). However, most European clinics are presently testing MCI/MI at 100 ppm, and with this concentration the percentage of MI allergies not detected with MCI/MI is at least 0.5% (Table 2). Furthermore, with the increasing frequency of MI allergy reported from the United Kingdom (17, 18), Germany (6, 22), and Denmark (21), we consider it important to include MI in the baseline series to (i) detect cases with allergic contact dermatitis caused by MI, (ii) to follow the trends in various geographical areas, and (iii) to provide information for possible legislative measures to reduce consumer exposure and minimize the risk of sensitization to MI and the elicitation of allergic contact dermatitis caused by MI. What patch test concentration should be recommended? According to Table 2, seven different concentrations in the ppm range have been used. It should be understood that it is not the concentration as such that is important, but the number of molecules of the sensitizer on a defined area of skin, that is, the dose/cm 2 (1). The concentration can be used as a parameter for dose when patch test results are compared, provided that the same test unit has been used and that the same amount/volume of the sensitizer has been applied onto the test unit. The dose/cm 2 is only available from the Swedish and Danish studies (11, 12, 18, 35). With the aqueous preparations, the volume applied onto Finn Chambers at the other clinics may be the same or up to three times higher, depending on the application technique used (36). For the study using pet. (Table 2) as a vehicle for MI, the amount of pet. applied to Finn Chambers may vary between 10 and 50 mg, according to our published results (37) and unpublished experience from the Malmö Department concerning the amounts of pet. preparations applied in hands-on lectures at patch test courses with both national and international participants. Adverse patch test reactions to MI seem to be uncommon, regardless of the patch test concentration and vehicle used. There has been one case reported with suspected active sensitization to MI at 1000 ppm (15 μl applied to a Finn Chamber with a diameter of 8 mm; 30 μg/cm 2 ) (18). No active sensitization has been reported from testing with 2000 ppm (7, 19), including the experience in Malmö with testing of 3500 dermatitis patients, and in Gentofte with testing of 5000 patients with MI at 2000 ppm (60 μg/cm 2 ) (partly unpublished observations). On the basis of these results and experience, it is recommended that MI in aqua at 2000 ppm be tested in the European baseline series. The recommended volume of 15 μl for a small Finn Chamber (diameter of 8 mm) gives a dose of 60 μg/cm 2. To minimize the risk of adverse reactions, the use of a micropipette allowing the application of 15 μl is strongly recommended. The new European baseline patch test series, including the recent concentration change for formaldehyde (2) and the inclusion of MI, is shown in Table 3.
