Exposure and sensitization to environmental allergen of predominantly Hispanic children with asthma in San Diego’s inner city  Sandra C. Christiansen, MDa, Stephen B. Martin, RN, SNPa, Nina C. Schleicher, BAa, James A. Koziol, PhDa, Robert G. Hamilton, PhDb, Bruce L. Zuraw, MDa  Journal of Allergy and Clinical Immunology  Volume 98, Issue 2, Pages 288-294 (August 1996) DOI: 10.1016/S0091-6749(96)70152-5 Copyright © 1996 Mosby, Inc. Terms and Conditions

FIG. 1 Net difference in concentrations for Der p 1, Der f 1, Bla 1, Bla 2, and Fed d 1 allergens between matched pillow or mattress samples and carpet samples in 20 asthmatic subjects. All values are derived by subtracting the allergen concentration in the carpet sample from the matched pillow or mattress sample. Points above 0 indicate a preponderance of allergen in the pillow or mattress sample, whereas values below 0 indicate a preponderance of allergen in the carpet sample.

FIG. 2 The effect of environmental control measures on mite allergen concentrations in six homes. Combined pillow and mattress plus carpet sample levels of Der p 1 and Der f 1 before, 1 month after, and 12 months after environmental control instruction was given are shown. All six homes had samples taken before and 1 month after instruction; five homes had samples taken after 1 year.
