In this paper we report results of skin prick tests (SPT) using pollen extracts on 200 patients with clinical symptoms of asthma, and results of a parallel study in which pollen was collected and classified over a period of 18 months. The patients were outpatients from the University Hospital in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, while the pollen grains were collected with a spore trap placed in the campus of the University of Malaya, approximately one kilometer from the University Hospital. Pollen extracts of 3 grasses (Bahia, Bermuda, rough pigweed) and 2 flowering trees, Acacia and Melaleuca, were used in the SPT. Of the 29.5% asthmatics with positive SPT reactions, 21.5% were to one or more of the grass pollens, 21.5% to Acacia and 7.5% to Melaleuca pollen. Acacia and Bermuda grass extracts were the most allergenic, which agreed with results of the pollen collection which showed grass and Acacia pollen grains to be the two most commonly found pollens.
在本文中，我们报告了对200名有哮喘临床症状的患者进行花粉提取物皮肤点刺试验（SPT）的结果，以及一项为期18个月的平行研究结果，该研究对花粉进行了收集和分类。这些患者是马来西亚吉隆坡大学医院的门诊病人，而花粉颗粒是用放置在马来亚大学校园内的孢子捕捉器收集的，校园距离大学医院约一公里。皮肤点刺试验使用了3种草（百喜草、狗牙根、糙叶豚草）和2种开花树（金合欢、白千层）的花粉提取物。在皮肤点刺试验反应呈阳性的29.5%的哮喘患者中，21.5%对一种或多种草花粉呈阳性，21.5%对金合欢花粉呈阳性，7.5%对白千层花粉呈阳性。金合欢和狗牙根草提取物的致敏性最强，这与花粉收集结果一致，该结果表明草花粉和金合欢花粉是最常见的两种花粉。
