Occupational contact dermatitis from Cichorium (chicory, endive) and Lactuca (lettuce).

B Friis, N Hjorth, J T Vail, J C Mitchell.   

Abstract

In two cases, occupational contact dermatitis was found to be due to chicory (Cichorium) used as a salad plant. In one of the two cases, contact sensitivity to letuce (Lactuca) was also observed. The sesquiterpene lactones of the plant may be the allergens.
