The antigens and allergens in the storage mite Tyrophagus putrescentiae, commonly found in grain and hay and sometimes in house dust, were characterized by crossed immunoelectrophoresis and crossed radioimmunoelectrophoresis. Three mite extracts, T. putrescentiae (TP) mite bodies, feces, and a combination of mites, feces, and culture medium (TP + CM) were studied. TP and TP + CM (primarily feces) extracts exhibited 20 and 18 antigens, respectively. By use of serum from two skin test-positive patients, autoradiograms demonstrated TP contained two allergens and TP + CM contained five allergens, three of which probably originated from feces. CM (whole wheat flour) did not stimulate antibody production in rabbits. TP feces shared 10 antigenic determinants with TP and 14 with TP + CM. Two antigens common to TP feces and TP were also shared allergens.
