    Sammanfattning : Throughout many parts of the world house dust mites (HDM) are considered as a major source of indoor aeroallergens and they are powerful inducers of allergic diseases. Proteolytic HDM allergens are recognised as being able to directly activate respiratory epithelial cells and thereby actively participate in innate immune responses. LÄS MER

    Sammanfattning : Mites are one of the most common causes of allergic reactions in many parts of the world. They can broadly be divided into two categories: house dust mites, primarily found in dwellings, and storage mites, primarily found in farming environments and grain storage facilities. Storage mites have now also been shown to exist in house dust. LÄS MER
