Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Qualitative determination of: <br>- Pigments<br>- Metals, which may be part of the pigment or present as impurities <br><br>- Patch testing of pigments in order to identify clinically relevant allergens<br><br>- In vitro characterization of T cell-mediated inflammatory reactions to metals and pigments using membrane-bound proteins<br><br>Correlation of the analysis results with<br>- results of patch testing (allergy history using IVDK/Winalldat software)<br>- clinical history data / exposure data recorded with the help of the accompanying information , e.g. histopathological diagnoses <br>- results of laboratory tests of specific T-cells from blood samples (flow cytometry)<br>- with further clinical data (allergy history with the help of IVDK/Winalldat software)<br>- with anamnesis data of the additional questionnaire (extended body art anamnesis)
Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
(Semi-)Quantitative determination of<br>- pigments<br>- Metals, which may be part of the pigment or present as impurities <br>- binders (e.g. (meth)acrylates), which are present as a component of the color or as an impurity (monomers)<br><br>Correlation of analytical results with <br>- laboratory results<br>- the declaration and chemical analysis of the ingredients in the liquid tattoo inks used (if available) <br><br>Evaluation of inflammation markers and lipid structure of the pigment surrounding tissue<br><br>Identification of individual risk factors by TZR sequencing and HLA genotyping and evaluation of their suitability as differential diagnostic molecular markers.
