Fragrance allergens — Possibilities of their identification in components of cosmetotextiles

Abstract

Fragrances and essential oils are often microencapsulated and applied on textiles designed for elders, both as compounds of cosmetics and as fragrances e.g. in aromatherapy. However in the aromatic compositions there may be compounds with allergenic activity. Possibility of identification potential fragrance allergens which may be applied on textiles in microcapsules is presented in this article.
