Person who are sensitive to products containing latex or those who are allergic to latex BEWARE! Some Manufacturers of carbonless copy paper use Styrene-Butaaadiene Latex based mixtures in their binders and adhesives. This is used to hold the multi page CCP forms together. Medical personnel use volumes of CCp daily. These adhesives have the potential to cause an allergic reaction                                                            See Latex Allergy Links   http://latexallergylinks.tripod.com
