Contact dermatitis to cutting fluids is a very frequent cause of occupational skin disease, with different mechanisms for those caused by irritation or allergies.

The aim of this work is to make clearer the investigative methods and the interpretation of the relevance of the results of patch tests, for more effective prevention.
