High-Sensitivity C-Reactive Protein and Allergic Endpoints in German Adolescents.

abstract：BACKGROUND:The widespread house ant, Monomorium pharaonis (pharaoh ant, PA), was recently identified as a potential cause of respiratory allergies. However, there are no reports of the distribution of PA allergens in various environments. We developed specific ELISA inhibition assays and measured the distribution and a...
