Background
Isobornyl acrylate (IBOA) has recently been identified as one sensitizer in the FreeStyle Libre glucose sensor. Analyses with gas chromatography‐mass spectrometry (GC‐MS) have indicated the presence of N,N‐dimethylacrylamide (DMAA) in the sensor.
Material and methods
Seven patients were referred for patch testing after developing skin reactions when using FreeStyle Libre. All patients...
Background
Most diabetic patients sensitized to FreeStyle Libre react to isobornyl acrylate (IBOA), with a considerable number of them also showing unexpected positive patch test reactions to sesquiterpene lactone (SL) mix (SLM) tested in the baseline series.
Objectives
To compile patch test results of subjects affected, and provide potential explanations for this association.
