Dimethyl fumarate allergen molecule
Dimethyl fumarate, molecular model. This chemical is used to treat the skin disorder psoriasis and as a mould inhibitor. However, at the very low levels used for mould prevention in consumer products, such as furniture, it can cause a severe allergic rash in individuals sensitive to it. In the European Union the use of dimethyl fumarate in consumer products has been banned since 1998. Atoms are represented as spheres are colour-coded: carbon (black), oxygen (red) and hydrogen (grey)

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate structure of a Dimethyl fumarate allergen molecule, portrayed as a detailed molecular model. This chemical compound serves multiple purposes in the field of medicine and industry. Primarily used to treat psoriasis, a common skin disorder, it is also employed as an effective mould inhibitor. However, caution must be exercised when using this substance in consumer products such as furniture. At very low levels utilized for mould prevention, individuals with sensitivity to Dimethyl fumarate may experience severe allergic reactions resulting in rashes. Due to these potential health risks, the European Union took decisive action by banning its use in consumer goods since 1998. The image beautifully represents atoms as spheres colored according to their elements: carbon depicted in black, oxygen represented by red spheres, and hydrogen shown as grey spheres. Against a pristine white background and accompanied by organic and environmental motifs, this illustration effortlessly combines artistry with scientific precision. With its focus on biology and chemistry intertwined with toxicology and dermatology aspects, this visual masterpiece provides valuable insights into the molecular world of biochemical compounds. It highlights both the significance of understanding allergens like Dimethyl fumarate and emphasizes the importance of responsible industrial practices. Captivatingly capturing attention through its composition and subject matter alike, this print from Science Photo Library stands out not only for its aesthetic appeal but also for its educational value within various scientific disciplines.
