(The
Microair Pristine® mattress
encasing is made with the tight weave fabric of the same name which has
revolutionised the world of anti-mite covers. Pristine,
composed of a very high number of polyester microfibers in a warp and weft
structure, creates a total barrier against mites and their allergens. It is the
only patented anti-mite fabric (Patent No. US 6,277,770 B1) because it was
designed by NASA engineers to perform this function with maximum comfort.)

House
dust mite allergen exposure in infancy.
Mahmic A1, Tovey ER, Molloy CA, Young L.
Abstract
BACKGROUND:
Infancy
may be a critical time for exposure to house dust mite allergens, when exposure
to high levels can increase the risk of allergic sensitization and the
development of asthma in later life.
OBJECTIVE:
To
measure house dust mite allergen (Der p 1) concentration in the infants'
environment and examine lifestyle factors which may influence mite allergen exposure.
METHODS:
Infants
aged between 4 and 12 months (n = 134) from the western region of Sydney,
Australia. participated. Reservoir dust samples were collected from four sites
within each home: infant's bed, second bed (adult or second child's bed), lounge
floor and sheepskins (where available). Settling aeroallergen was collected for
10-14 d in Petri dishes in the infant's room. Der p 1 was measured by ELISA. A
questionnaire on types of bedding, sleeping and playing patterns of the infant
was completed by the parents at the time of dust collection.
RESULTS:
All
infants were exposed to at least one site with Der p 1 concentrations greater
than 10 microg/g fine dust. The mean settling aeroallergen level in the
infants' room was 24 ng De p l/m2 day and this was weakly related to bed
allergen levels (r=0.21, P<0.05). Mattress type had a weak effect on Der p 1
levels as measured in the whole bed (P = 0.07), while bed cover and bed type
had no effect (P>0.6). The mean product of time spent at a site and its allergen
concentration was highest for beds in 69% of infants.
CONCLUSION:
The
high level of allergen exposure in the environment of this group of infants
places them at an increased risk of early sensitization and development of
asthma. Any strategy to reduce asthma prevalence should address these high and
avoidable levels.
