}Nickel release from white gold discs stored at room temperature for I week in synthetic sweat was analyzed. The nickel content of the discs was 2–15%. The nickel release from the discs was 0.09–0.82μg. Rhodium plating reduced the nickel release to 0.04–0.54 μg 18 nickel‐sensitive women were patch tested with the while gold discs and all showed at least 1 positive patch test reaction. All the white gold discs gave a negative dimethylglyoxime test.

Although the DMG test can be used as a first line test for determining nickel release, some DMG‐negative metal materials probably induce nickel sensitization, and should by no means be advertised as safe in this respect.

Rhodium plating renders the surface of metals hard and resistant to tarnishing, and because of its colour (very similar to silver) and high reflecting capacity, it is used for optical instruments, jewellery, dental prostheses, and decorations.

Neither gold nor silver plating prevented the nickel release and the most sensitive women showed eczematous reactions to studs/clasps releasing nickel down to 0.05 μg, and the dimethylglyoxime test was positive only when more than 10 μg Ni was released.

Variations in dissolution rate were found over a pH range of 3.5 to 6.5, a temperature range of 10 to 40°C and for times up to 6 h and the presence of oxygen increases the dissolution rate markedly.
