Allergen Details

Allergen name: Der f 23
Allergen source: Major taxonomic group: Animalia Arthropoda
Order: Sarcoptiformes
Species: Dermatophagoides farinae (American house dust mite)
NCBI Taxomony ID: 6954
Biochemical name:Peritrophin-A-like protein
MW(SDS-PAGE):19 kDa (Der f 23.01), 8 kDa (Der f 23.02)
Allergenicity:Subjects clinical history was recorded with symptoms of rhinitis or bronchial asthma. Serum IgE reactions to Der f 23.0101 were measured including western blots, dot blots and ELISA, with 72 positive reactors out of 129 patients, and 31 negative controls for IgE binding. SPT was positive for 3 subjects out of 10 patients and 10 controls. E. coli produced recombinant protein was used in IgE binding and SPT tests.
