Background

Palladium belongs with rhodium, ruthenium, iridium, and osmium to the platinum group of metals. These elements have considerable corrosion resistance and are considered precious metals. Because of its relatively low cost, palladium is one of the most used precious metals. Palladium occurs in nature alloyed with platinum, gold, and as selenide. Palladium is a good electrical and heat conductor.
Dental gold, silver, and copper alloys may contain 10% of palladium, whereas white gold for fine jewelry may contain even 20%.
Vincenzi et al. patch-tested 2300 consecutive patients with paladium chloride. One hundred seventy one (7.4%) were allergic and 169 were also nickel-allergic. One hundred and fifty-six of the 171 patients were female. Wahlberg and Boman showed that palladium was a more potent sensitizer than nickel in guinea pigs.
