our study is the first to evaluate the allergen levels of dust samples from hammocks&#46; Hammocks are common in the Northeast of Brazil&#46; According to our results&#44; hammocks are an important site of allergen accumulation and may play an important role in asthma sensitization and in the development of asthma symptoms in sensitized individuals&#46; Because we found &#8805;10&#160;mcg of Der p 1&#47;g of dust in 75&#37; of the hammock samples from the patients with asthma&#44; the environmental control measures in this area should include frequently washing the hammocks used for rest and sleeping&#46; The levels of the Der p 1 allergens found on the bedroom floors and in the living rooms and kitchens were low&#44; probably because the surveyed homes had good ventilation and no carpets&#46; This result highlights the importance of sleeping places as sources of mite allergen exposure&#46;</p><p id="para290" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">Surprisingly&#44; despite the significant sensitization observed in the skin-prick tests&#44; the Blo t 5 concentrations were close to the detection threshold&#46; Studies performed in other Brazilian cities have also reported low concentration of Blo t 5 at several sites&#46;

cockroach allergies have been recognized as an important cause of sensitization and asthma&#46; Several studies have demonstrated that patients who were sensitized to cockroaches had been exposed to high levels of this antigen in their homes &#40;especially in their bedding&#41; and that a cockroach allergy is an important risk factor for hospital admission&#46; A number of factors&#44; including climate&#44; the type of construction&#44; home ventilation&#44; hygiene&#44; and socioeconomic status&#44; have been associated with an increased sensitization to cockroaches&#46; The allergen levels of Bla g 1 were higher than those reported for Bla g 2&#44; possibly due to a cross-reaction between the Bla g 1 and Per a 1 allergens &#40;<span class="elsevierStyleItalic">P&#46; americana</span> is the most frequent cockroach in Brazil&#41;&#46; The low levels of Bla g 2 we observed strengthen this hypothesis because this allergen is specific to Bla g&#46;</p><p id="para310" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">In our study population of asthmatic adults&#44; we observed no association between sensitization to Der p&#44; Bla g&#44; and&#47;or Per a and exposure to mite and cockroach allergens&#46; Our patients frequently reported childhood asthma&#44; and it is possible that exposure during the initial years of life plays an important role in sensitization or that exposure to allergens outside the home environment is an important factor for developing sensitization&#46;</p><p id="para320" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">The environmental control measures for patients who are allergic to mites and live in Fortaleza or other places where hammocks are used must consider hammocks to be possible sites for significant allergen accumulation&#46;
