This study investigated intradermal test reactions to extracts of six species of mites in 150 dogs with atopic dermatitis. At least one positive reaction was seen in 120 animals (80%). Dermatophagoides farinae attracted the highest number of positive reactions (108 dogs, 90% of dogs and 72% of atopic dogs showing positive reactions). Positive reactions to other mites were not uncommon, with many dogs testing positive for Dermatophagoides pteronyssinus (32% of dogs tested), Acarus siro (35%), Tyrophagus putrescentiae (30%), Glycyphagus domesticus (27%) and Lepidoglyphus destructor (23%). Sensitivity to D. farinae alone occurred commonly (57% of cases), but multiple sensitivities were seen frequently with the other mites. Cases of sensitivity to only one mite were also seen: D. pteronyssinus (five cases), T. putrescentiae (one case) and G. domesticus (one case). Further studies are needed to appreciate more clearly the precise role played by the different species of mite in canine atopic dermatitis.
本研究调查了150只患特应性皮炎犬对六种螨类提取物的皮内试验反应。120只动物（80%）出现了至少一种阳性反应。粉尘螨引起的阳性反应数量最多（108只犬，占犬只的90%，占患特应性皮炎犬的72%呈阳性反应）。对其他螨类的阳性反应也并不罕见，许多犬对屋尘螨（占受试犬的32%）、粉螨（35%）、腐食酪螨（30%）、家甜食螨（27%）和害嗜鳞螨（23%）检测呈阳性。仅对粉尘螨敏感的情况很常见（57%的病例），但对其他螨类的多重敏感性也很常见。也发现了仅对一种螨敏感的病例：屋尘螨（5例）、腐食酪螨（1例）和家甜食螨（1例）。需要进一步研究以更清楚地了解不同种类螨在犬特应性皮炎中的确切作用。
