The allergenic properties of the nine mite species prevalent in the house dust of northwestern Switzerland (Basel and surroundings) were studies. For the preparation of mite extracts, the average weight of each species was first determined and then the number per culture glass counted. Thus the extracts were prepared according to the weight of the mites. They were tested on 115 patients with ashma and/or rhinitis. Tests with patients own house dust and with a human dander/yeast mixture, which served as culture medium for the mites, were carried out simultaneously. Test results were either positive or negative for all substances in 93 patients (80 per cent). Dermatophagoides pteronyssinus, D. farinae and Euroglyphus maynei caused the most frequent and most severe reactions. The species Glycyphagus destructor, G. privatus, Chortoglyphus arcuatus, Gohieria fusca, Tyrophagus putrescentiae and Acarus siro seem to play a less important role, if any, in house dust allergies.
对瑞士西北部（巴塞尔及其周边地区）室内灰尘中普遍存在的9种螨虫的变应原特性进行了研究。为制备螨虫提取物，首先测定每种螨虫的平均重量，然后计算每个培养皿中的螨虫数量。因此，提取物是根据螨虫的重量制备的。对115名哮喘和/或鼻炎患者进行了测试。同时用患者自己的室内灰尘以及用作螨虫培养基的人皮屑/酵母混合物进行测试。93名患者（80%）对所有物质的测试结果均为阳性或阴性。屋尘螨、粉尘螨和梅氏嗜霉螨引起的反应最频繁、最严重。在室内灰尘过敏中，食腐嗜甜螨、隐秘嗜甜螨、弓螯螨、褐嗜皮螨、腐食酪螨和粗脚粉螨这几种螨虫似乎即便有作用，也发挥着较小的作用。
