Porcine scabies mites, Sarcoptes scabiei var. suis are more readily available in sufficient quantities than are human scabies mites. Circulating IgE antibodies specific to porcine scabies mites were found in 6 (30%) of 20 scabies patients with an RAST score of at least 2. Seven patients had elevated serum total IgE levels. Correlation between the RAST values, the duration of pruritus, and the IgE levels was not found. The results do not prove the existence of antibodies specific to porcine scabies mites but strongly support this assumption.
猪疥螨,即猪型疥螨,比人疥螨更容易大量获取。在20例RAST评分至少为2的疥疮患者中,有6例(30%)检测到针对猪疥螨的循环IgE抗体。7例患者血清总IgE水平升高。未发现RAST值、瘙痒持续时间与IgE水平之间存在相关性。这些结果虽未证实存在针对猪疥螨的特异性抗体,但有力地支持了这一假设。
