Dust Mite Allergy

Dust mites are found throughout our homes, in the office, and really everywhere we find ourselves. These are extremely small bugs that live in dust. Since dust is generally considered unavoidable, dust mites tend to live in most homes. Even with a thorough cleaning, missing a small spot of dust leaves people exposed to dust mites. 

A lot of people are allergic to dust mites. An allergic reaction to these tiny bugs can cause a person to suffer various symptoms. Studies show that respiratory allergy symptoms are highly prevalent among individuals who have a dust mite allergy. 

While many people experience a mild reaction to dust mites, there are more serious reactions that can occur too. In some cases, the skin underneath the eyes may become blue and swollen. Facial pain and pressure have also been noted. 

People who are not sure what may be causing their allergy symptoms should consider obtaining a dust mite allergy. This is especially a good idea if your allergy symptoms have no obvious explanation. 

Our Dust Mite Allergy testing kits have been made to help you identify whether or not your symptoms are caused by dust mites. Our kits have been developed to ensure you get results on all common dust mites that may be present in your home. 

Each Dust Mite Allergy testing kit includes three different testing devices. This helps you test for allergies against Dust Mites Type 1 and Dust Mites Type 2, often referred to as D1 and D2. A Total IgE test is also included in every kit. 

Disposable pipettes, along with a whole blood buffer, are also included with the purchase of our Dust Mite Allergy kits. 

These tests are very easy to perform and gives you a clear overview of IgE antibodies that your body makes in response to dust mites.
