2015, Journal of Allergy and Clinical ImmunologyCitation Excerpt :At present, this threshold is not well defined in the literature and is likely to be compounded by the presence of other allergens and some predisposing factors, such as viral infections, exposure to chemicals (eg, formaldehyde), individual susceptibility, and use of medication.22,23 Studies seeking to quantify a level of exposure that can be considered “safe” suggest that levels of less than 2 μg/g of HDM allergens are the maximum level for the primary prevention of sensitization in atopic children and young adults.24,25 A study of HDM sensitization during the first 3 years of life found that sensitization was low during infancy (0.5%), with an increase during the second (1.4%) and third (1.9%) years of life, and concluded that interventions aimed at primary prevention of sensitization should be introduced as early as possible, preferably during infancy.15
