Storage/Furniture Mite (Glycyphagus domesticus) Allergy Test

This IgE blood allergy test will determine if you are allergic to Storage/Furniture Mites (Glycyphagus domesticus).

Storage mites, also known as Furniture mites, are found in foods and grains in warehouses and other storage areas. In homes, they thrives in infested foodstuffs and in damp areas, where they feeds on molds. These mites' main food sources are flour, cereals, other cereal products and fungi.

These mites are often found in old-fashioned upholstered furniture, especially in damp items where the stuffing has rotted. Storage mites feed on the fungus and multiply in large numbers. Like all other mites, they quickly die if the moisture of their homes dries out.

Traditional allergy tests utilize the Skin Prick method (also known as a Puncture or Scratch test) to determine whether an allergic reaction will occur by inserting possible triggers into your skin using a needle prick. If you are allergic to the substance, you are forced to suffer through your body's reaction to the allergen. HealthLabs.com offers an easier, virtually pain-free blood test to determine the allergen status of substances without the irritation of traditional skin prick tests.
