| Abstrakt: |
Approximately 30% of the house dust mite allergic patients in The Netherlands have IgE antibodies reactive with silverfish, cockroach and/or chironomid. In allergic patients without IgE antibodies against Dermatophagoides pteronyssinus less than 5% have IgE antibodies reactive with these insects. By means of RAST inhibition studies it is shown that cross-reactivity exists between D. pteronyssinus and silverfish, cockroach or chironomid. This means that a positive RAST for silverfish, cockroach, chironomid or D. pteronyssinus cannot be taken as evidence for exposure. |
