Abstract
By using three different skin testing techniques and RAST, this study explores the relationship among house dust, mite (Dermatophagoides farinae) and cockroach allergy in atopic patients in the Kansas City area. Results suggest that the cockroach antigen may be as important as the mite in the etiology of house dust allergy in this population.
