The main constituent of one of the most suitable media for growing house-dust mites (D. pteronyssinus) are human skin scales. In this study it is shown that skin scales of a number of other animals are also accepted as food by these mites, with evidence of allergen production. Production of house-dust mite allergen for diagnosis and treatment should not be done on non-human animal skin scales, because of their own high allergenicity.
适合尘螨（屋尘螨）生长的最佳培养基之一的主要成分是人体皮屑。本研究表明，许多其他动物的皮屑也被这些螨虫作为食物接受，并有产生过敏原的证据。由于非人类动物皮屑自身具有高致敏性，因此不应用于生产用于诊断和治疗的屋尘螨过敏原。
