House dust contains various organic and inorganic materials. The most important parts of the house dust are dust mites causing allergic diseases such as allergic rhinitis, asthma, atopic dermatitis and seasonal keratoconjunctivitis. In this study, a total of 72 random house dust samples collected from various regions of Eskisehir were examined. The dust samples were examined by the lactic acid precipitation method which was modified from the Spieksma-Boezaman's method. The mite positive house dust rate was 16.67% including Dermatophagoides pteronyssinus, Chortoglyphus arcuatus and Tyrophagus sp. It was concluded that investigation of a greater number of samples would lead to more precise rate of detection of mite positive dust and also that more mite species would be found.
室内灰尘包含各种有机和无机物质。室内灰尘最重要的成分是尘螨，它们会引发过敏性疾病，如过敏性鼻炎、哮喘、特应性皮炎和季节性角结膜炎。在本研究中，共检测了从埃斯基谢希尔不同地区随机采集的72份室内灰尘样本。采用从斯皮克斯马-博扎曼方法改良而来的乳酸沉淀法对灰尘样本进行检测。螨阳性室内灰尘率为16.67%，包括粉尘螨、弧形嗜卷蜱和食酪螨属。研究得出结论，检测更多样本将使螨阳性灰尘的检测率更精确，并且会发现更多螨种类。
