Airborne contact dermatitis from Eucalyptus pulverulenta‘Baby Blue’ in a florist

Contact dermatitis from Eucalyptus oil has been documented previously (1–4), whereas contact dermatitis from Eucalyptus plants has been reported only a few times previously (5). The bark and wood have been reported to induce dermatitis and the leaves contact urticaria (5). Due to the scarcity of more recent reports, we find it of interest to present a case of occupational airborne allergic contact dermatitis from a popular ornamental Eucalyptus species, Eucalyptus pulverulenta ‘Baby Blue’.
