Allergen, Individual-Dust House Dust Greer Labs H1

The Allergen, Individual‑Dust House Dust Greer Labs H1 is a home dust‑sample assay designed to detect and quantify common indoor allergen proteins present in household dust. The test analyses collected dust for specific allergenic components (such as dust‑mite, pet dander, cockroach and selected mould allergens) using validated immunoassay methods, providing objective data on exposure levels.

This information helps clinicians and homeowners in Dubai and the UAE to target environmental control measures, personalise allergy management (including consideration for allergen immunotherapy) and reduce symptom triggers for allergic rhinitis, asthma or atopic dermatitis. Samples are collected from high‑exposure sites (mattresses, sofas, carpets) using a provided collection kit and processed by the laboratory to produce a clear, actionable report.
