Allergen of the Year

Allergen of the Year

Allergen of the Year is an annual 'award' of dubious distinction voted upon by the American Contact Dermatitis Society. It is "designed to draw attention to allergens that are very common and/or underrecognized and merit more attention because they are causing significant contact dermatitis".[1]
