Carcases and mites

Experimental and Applied Acarology, 2009
Mites are involved in the decomposition of animal carcases and human corpses at every stage. From initial decay at the fresh stage until dry decomposition at the skeletal stage, a huge diversity of Acari, including members of the Mesostigmata, Prostigmata, Astigmata, Endeostigmata, Oribatida and Ixodida, are an integral part of the constantly changing ...

Mite allergy and exposure to storage mites and house dust mites in farmers

Clinical & Experimental Allergy, 1990
SummarySensitization to house dust mites, storage mites and other common inhalation allergens was studied in 144 farmers using SPT and RAST. The study population was selected from a random sample of 808 farmers and consisted of 47 persons who had declared themselves to suffer from asthma, 63 persons who had reported respiratory symptoms, and 34 healthy

There is an increasing awareness of the health implications of mite sensitivity, as it is closely related to asthma. Mite allergy constitutes a complex worldwide problem, with sanitary and economical implications.

MITES IN INDUSTRY

Archives of Dermatology, 1954
INDUSTRIAL dermatoses due to mites have not been reported frequently in the English literature. However, this infrequency of recorded cases does not indicate that mites are seldom instigators of pruriginous eruptions. Both a review of the literature and personal experiences suggest that there is no real scarcity of mitecaused dermatoses, but only an ...

Diseases of mites.

Experimental & applied acarology, 2000
An overview is given of studies on diseases of mites. Knowledge of diseases of mites is still fragmentary but in recent years more attention has been paid to acaropathogens, often because of the economic importance of many mite species. Most research on mite pathogens concerns studies on fungal pathogens of eriophyoids and spider mites especially ...

Reflections on the control of mites and mite allergens

Allergy, 1998
In cool climates, the humidity circumstances in a home during the summer months are more important for allergen accumulation than those in the winter months. For the same reasons, a reduction of humidity will have a much greater impact during the summer months. Not only the relative humidity, but also the removal of the dust mites' food by cleaning can
