An international seroprevalence survey of the IgE sensitisation to the Dermatophagoides farinae house dust mite and two of its major allergens (Der f 2, Zen 1) in atopic dogs

open access: yesVeterinary Dermatology, Volume 33, Issue 2, Page 117-e34, April 2022., 2022
Background – Dogs with atopic dermatitis are often immunoglobulin (Ig)E‐sensitised to Dermatophagoides farinae (Df) house dust mites, yet limited data exist on the sensitisation rates to the individual Df allergens, Der f 2 and Zen 1. Objectives – To determine the IgE sensitisation rates to Df, Der f 2 and Zen 1 in atopic dogs from geographically ...
