In the March 2011 article in Home Textile Today Editor in Chief Jennifer Marks highlighted the confusion over ‘thread count inflation’ and its lack of meaning. Jennifer expects to see thread count identification to drop into obscurity on packaging. The issue over thread count has a further relevance for people wishing to make decisions with regards to pore size and allergen barrier efficacy. The tendency for many retailers to associate pore size with thread count and hence the bedding textile’s ability to block allergens is incorrect.Pore size is often measured using bubble point as it is quick and fairly easy to do, however due to unopened pores and pore size variation it is probably better to do scanning or projection microscopy which also has the added benefit image generation. These images will also illustrate the warp and weft of the fabric demonstrating how the high threads count can be claimed but with no added benefit in pore size.Pore size only loosely correlates with allergen filtration efficacy and there are a number of factors that contribute to this including van der vaals forces and allergen conformation. It is important to note that when a textile is claiming that it is an allergen barrier, it is claiming to block allergen particles such as fel d 1 particles which are less than 10µm in diameter and the mite faecal pellets, derp 1 which ranges between 10µm and 40µm however the dust mite itself has a size of 250µm to 300µm. Therefore a direct way needs to be developed to measure filtration capability in order for retailers to make accurate claims. Glass bead filtration methodologies traditionally used in the military evaluation of filters have some benefits but again have not been shown to be accurate predictors of allergen behaviour in textiles.The first description of direct allergen filtration used a modified fussnecker dust trap published in Journal of Allergy and Clinical Immunology, Vaughan et al (1999). This paper, “Evaluation of materials used for bedding encasements: Effect of pore size in blocking cat and dust mite allergen”, discusses the relationship between encasements that block allergen and also allow the passage of air through the material. This technique has the benefit of direct measure of airflow which is a key issue for comfort physiology and patient compliance. Dust samples containing a known amount of allergen are pulled across the fabric and a filter located downstream collects any allergen that passes through. The amount recovered on the filter is extracted and measured using an ELISA kit specific for different types of allergens. The data from this allows manufacturers and retailers to directly claim allergen blocking ability for fabrics against a number of allergens. Another method that also provides information regarding allergen barrier efficacy is the Simulated Use Test and this will be described and discussed in further articles.Fabric analysis data of allergen filtration using the modified dust trap methodology (Allergen Barrier Testing with Airflow) is a key evaluation technique for Allergy Standards Limited (ASL) an international standards and certification body helping consumers and retailers identify bedding for people concerned about allergies, asthma and indoor air quality. ASL’s independent certification standards for textiles have been written in consultation with industry, retailers and health care professionals and are the only standards that are accepted by the Asthma and Allergy Foundation of America.The Allergen Barrier Services such as testing and research for the Asthma and Allergy Foundation of America certification program is conducted by the life sciences company airmid healthgroup ltd (AHG). The AHG textile research spans all disciplines relevant to indoor particulate contaminants, ranging from virology, microbiology, mycology, allergen and also including dust mite and bed bug research. The AHG laboratory offers a complete range of advanced Allergen Testing Services specialising in Allergen Barrier Services, Dust Mite related Testing, Claim verification services and Allergen detection.In summary, due to the continuing confusion of textile labelling where pore size and thread count is concerned, the Allergen Barrier Testing with Airflow evaluation of fabrics and textile plays a vital role in correct claim verification where allergen is concerned. Reputable retailers should ensure that all allergen claims have been conducted in a meaningful way to avoid falling foul of labelling guidelines. Concerned consumers should also seek that all labelling where allergies are concerned have been validated by a third party independent testing authority.

For plugged sinuses, try tom yum soup at a thai restaurant.

For that awful plugged pressury feeling at night, try wetting a washcloth and folding it and putting it across your eyes and nose. I haven’t found anything that works well for runny nose, but to me, if you are a chronic sufferer, tissues are worse than a soft cloth handkerchief.

If it’s the middle of the night and you wake up sneezing, I find that it’s also good to walk into the bathroom and just stand or sit there for a while. It’s a MUCH less dusty room with fewer allergens and more hard surfaces than the bedroom, so it’s less troublesome to your allergies.

Good luck!

For some reason, the pollens you are being exposed to are too strong for you to get used to them. The shots are much weaker; and then they gradually increase the dosage.

Is your little one getting paroxysmal bouts of sneezing? If he does, do you frequently see him attempting to wrinkle his nose due to itchiness? Or do you notice frequent clear watery discharges from his nostrils? Be advised! That is the classic symptom of rhinitis.

Rhinitis is an inflammation of the lining of the nose, distinguished by nasal congestion, rhinorrhea or clear watery nasal discharge, sneezing and nose itching. If there is a strong family history of allergy in the family, allergic type of rhinitis ought to be strongly considered. Seasonal allergic rhinitis, oftenknown as hay fever is frequently observed in young children and grown ups who are sensitized to pollens of trees and grasses. Perennial allergic rhinitis has signs and symptoms that happen throughout the year.It is induced by allergens which the affected person is continually exposed to such as home dust mites, pet danders, feathers and someanimals. Food allergens can also be the offending agent.

A child with allergic rhinitis has airway blockage due to boggy edema of his nasal mucus membranes. Signs or symptoms include repeated sore throats, dryness of the mouth, loud night breathing, and a nasal quality tot the voice. Interestingly, a kid or even an grownup with allergic rhinitis can be recognized based on their skin characteristics and mannerisms.

1. Rabbit nose. It is a mannerism by the child attempting to wrinkle his nose because of itchiness.

2. Allergic salute. A mannerism by the child referring to the upward or sideways thrust of the palm of the hand to the tip of his nose once watery rhinorrhea and itchiness are significant.

3. Transverse crease. That refers to the horizontal ridges at the junction of the tip of the nose and the much more rigid bridge. Frequent mannerisms of rabbit nose and allergic salute lead to the formation of the crease.

4. Allergic shiners – These are darkish circles beneath the eyes due to venous stasis resulting from blood flow obstruction triggered by the edema of the nasal mucous membranes.

5. Mouth breathing – Due to nasal obstruction, the child is obligated to inhale and exhale in the mouth. A lot of the time afterwards he keeps his mouth slightly open, and this can lead to mouth dryness.

Identification of these facial features can help in the diagnosis of allergic rhinitis. As soon as suspected, the kid should be brought to a doctor for parent/child education concerning allergic rhinitis, allergen avoidance and pharmacotherapy.

Answer by Queen of the Dust Mites
Allergy is a chronic condition. That means that like diabetes or asthma it can be treated but not cured. The problem is caused by a defect in your immune system whereby your body misidentifies certain proteins as evil enemy invaders….instead of the harmless proteins that they are. You can’t get rid of the allergy, but you can get rid of the allergic reaction. This is done by eliminating your exposure to the allergen. In this case it is shellfish. So, you avoid contact with shellfish. So stay out of seafood restaurants and don’t eat shellfish. Also, read labels carefully to make sure that shellfish is not an ingredient in any prepackaged food you purchase.

Immunotherapy, commonly called allergy shots, are a sequence of injections that help fight the substances (allergens) that most commonly trigger extreme allergic reactions.

Here’s how it works; Allergy shots are injected over a period of time to a preplanned schedule. A series of shots will be given, initially at a rate of one or two shots per week for the first 3 to 6 months. This is followed by being injected only once in every month for the next 3 to 5 years. It is important to note that there is a slow but measured increase of dosage in every shot. This measured approach is to ensure that the body gradually accepts the component allergen into your system as a non-invasive substance.

Usually some small improvement in your allergic reactions are observed in first year of treatment but more positive and evident results will be recorded in the second year of injecting allergy shots. By the end of the third year, you should fully be desensitized to the allergens contained within the shots.

Continual monitoring and evaluation will be carried out by your doctor to ensure positive progress during the first year of regular allergy shots. Where necessary, the dosage of allergens within the shots will be adjusted to maintain the desired rate of progress. If this is not possible, then the shots program can be withdrawn to give way to other medication procedures.

How effective this treatment is in the long term has yet to be clarified. It appears that if the treatment is successful, most people with allergies will be able to keep the symptoms of the allergy at a satisfactory level and therefore look forward to lasting relief for life.

Further, reactions to having the allergy shots are are known to be mostly safe, but since your body is absorbing the same substance that initiated the anguish in the first place, the possibility reaction is clear although does not pose high risk.

You might experience or notice some slight irritation or redness of skin at the spot where the injection is given, but this will disappear in 4 to 8 hours depending on the exact dosage of allergens. Sneezing may also be noticed, as well as congestion in the nasal area and possible development of hives. Other more serious indications may include swelling in the throat or tightening of the chest or even the most serious reaction known as anaphylaxis.

Do not let this worry you however, as you will be observed by your doctor for 30 to 40 minutes after having each shot. This type of medication is only administered by your doctor, thus ensuring that appropriate aid is available in the unlikely event that a particular patient encounters an extreme reaction during the course of treatment.
