Fig 1 Concentrations of IgE antibodies against C lectularius extract, C lectularius nitrophorin recombinant protein, Dermataphagoides farinae, and German cockroach among the 30 adults reporting bed bug bites in the past year. Absence of a bar indicates that the subject had undetectable IgE levels (ie, <0.1 IU/mL).

Fig 2 Western blot of human (subject 23) IgE binding to cNP and C lectularius extract. cNP is a 32-kDa protein. A similar sized band can be seen in the extract. The slight difference in size likely is due to posttranslational modifications of the cNP.
