TY - JOUR PY - 2007// TI - Laundry detergent and possible nonaccidental injury JO - European journal of emergency medicine A1 - Howieson, Alan J. A1 - Harley, Oliver J. H. A1 - Tiernan, Eunan P. SP - 163 EP - 164 VL - 14 IS - 3 N2 - Nonaccidental injury is always a concern when children present with unusual injuries. The case of a child who presented with a partial thickness burn secondary to prolonged contact with a liquid biological laundry detergent is described. Initially there was some doubt as to whether the agent in question could cause this injury but a small experiment on a volunteer confirmed it was possible.
