If nickel makes you ill - example of application |
|
|
|
Do you have itching, redness, rash or even inflammations and eczema on the skin at contact points
exposed to jewelry like earrings and bracelets or glasses, jeans buttons, belt buckles and zippers? Then these items could release nickel and you react allergically to it. Therefore you should
first of all find out if these items actually release nickel.
With the Nickel Test Sensitive you can check within seconds if your piece of jewelry releases nickel ions. The test can be purchased directly from SQUARIX GmbH.
Here you can also read or download a detailed instruction manual that comes along with the test sticks.
If your piece of jewelry releases nickel ions, the test stick will turn red which is a further indication that you might suffer from a nickel allergy.
For an unequivocal determination you should go to a dermatologist who, if necessary, can clarify the
supposition with e.g. allergy tests. If the allergy test confirms the supposition, you should make sure that Ni-containing parts as for example the tested piece of jewelry no longer
get in touch with your skin. |
