  1. sensitiser

    A sensitiser is a substance that, upon being introduced to the body via inhalation, ingestion or skin contact, can cause an allergic reaction, usually after prolonged or repeated exposure. This reaction may cause conditions such as asthma, dermatitis, or other allergic responses. Once sensitised, even a small amount of the substance can trigger a response. Some sensitisers only affect certain individuals who are predisposed due to their genetic makeup.
