Allergic contact dermatitis to phenol‐formaldehyde resin at a single tertiary dermatology centre

Phenol‐formaldehyde resin 2 (PFR2) has been shown to be a useful marker of contact allergy (CA) to various phenol‐formaldehyde resins. These compounds are used in several industries as solids, powders, or semisolid resins, and are known to be sensitizing agents.
