[alcyonidium gelatinosum (l.) (bryozoa) and cutaneous hypersensitivity reactions. preliminary results of an experimental study]. | the appearance of acute eczematous dermatitis in fishermen from the estuary of the seine, about which the responsibility of alcyonidium gelatinosum (l.) is still under discussion, led us to estimate the ability of this bryozoa to induce cutaneous responses of delayed hypersensitivity. intradermal tests carried out in guinea-pigs after subcutaneous, respiratory or percutaneous sensitization, gave evidence of a clear allergenic ability of this alcyonelline. the deposit of the biological product on ... | 1977 | 579334 |

[professional eczema of trawlermen by contact with bryozoaires in the "baie de scine" (first french cases 1975-1977) (author's transl)]. | since 1972 in the "baie de seine" trawlermen have been affected with a particular eczema of hands and forearms. it is caused by repeated contact with a bryozoaire, alcyonidium gelatinosum and patch-tests are positive. a survey of 120 trawlermen in le havre has shown 13 cases. | 1978 | 150246 |
dogger bank itch. 4. an eczema-causing sulfoxonium ion from the marine animal, alcyonidium gelatinosum [bryozoa]. | repeated exposure to the marine bryozoan, alcyonidium gelatinosum, frequently provokes an eczematous allergic contact dermatitis known as the "dogger bank itch". the dermatitis, representing a severe occupational disease, is especially widely distributed among trawlermen working in the dogger bank area in the north sea. the allergy is shown to belong to the type of cell-mediated hypersensitivity. the hapten has been identified as the (2-hydroxyethyl)dimethylsulfoxonium ion. the isolation, struct ... | 1982 | 6210974 |

secondary metabolites from marine bryozoans. a review. | secondary metabolites from marine bryozoans are reviewed. two ctenosome bryozoans are dealt with, one, alcyonidium gelatinosum containing a sulfoxonium ion acting as hapten in an allergic contact dermatitis and the other, zoobotryon verticillatum yielding bromogramines. five cheilostome bryozoans have given rise to the isolation of unique secondary natural products. bugula neritina is the source of the antineoplastic bryostatins and bugula purple while flustra foliacea have yielded an array of b ... | 1985 | 3907226 |
professional photosensitive eczema of fishermen by contact with bryozoans: disabling occupational dermatosis. | eczema associated with bryozoans is a form of occupational dermatosis caused by a living animal, involving contact eczema, occasionally associated with photosensitivity and concerning fishermen on a quasi-elective basis. this affection can prove to be extremely disabling, frequently generating disastrous social consequences, since the eviction of the responsible allergen is very often synonymous to occupational reclassification, a measure which fishermen, highly attached to their profession, hav ... | 2008 | 19227737 |
