Iodine is a very common sensitizing agent

[AUS62 at aol_com]

I have not encountered such a problem, but suspect the frozen brine shrimp as 
that would release iodine. Severe allergic reactions are common with iodine 
and a number of deaths have occurred from people being injected intravenously 
with iodine dyes as for special X-ray exams such as intravenous pyelograms. 
Everyone suffering from those allergics reactions must make certain their 
physicians know in event they may wish to use some of the special tests with 
iodine based dyes. I have no info on bloodworms per se. Are the allergic 
reactions reported only with both agents - frozen brine shrimp and bloodworms?
