Background
Thiuram mix is used in commercial patch-test series to detect contact allergy to four closely related chemicals used primarily as accelerators in the production of rubber. These allergens include dipentamethylenethiuram disulfide (PTD), tetraethylthiuram disulfide (TETD), tetramethylthiuram disulfide (TMTD), and tetramethylthiuram monosulfide (TMTM).
