None but dichlofluanid is presently classified by Sweden or the European Community (EC). Reviews in Swedish cover 11 substances classified as sensitizers in the EC: alachlor, o-aminoazotoluene, barban, butanone oxime, cyanamide, m-phenylenediamine, folpet, 1,6-hexamethylene diisocyanate, captafol, captan and nickel sulfate.
