Try soaking the parts in question in 50% vinegar solution for at least two hours. This will cut down on the allergic properties of the plastics. If the vinegar odor bothers you, wash it thoroughly afterwards (otherwise you can was it more casually).

Many have knocked this, but please give it a try.
