Description
This mite exists in warmer settings, generally where the temperature rises above 30 degrees. Moreover as the temperature rises, its lifespan can prolong. Humidity above 85% represents another condition that is required by Tyrophagus putrescentiae. Providing the right surrounding, a generation of Tyrophagus putrescentiae can be created within 8 to 21 days.
This mite can pest number of foods, especially food high in fat and protein content. For instance, it prevails in wheat flour, soy flour, wheat germ, cheese, rye bread, white bread, mixtures of oats, barley and wheat, cultivated mushrooms, various seeds and fruits (including dried bananas), straw stacks in the field, decaying animal and vegetable matter, dried milk, and ham.
Up to now, more than 20 allergenic proteins have been identified. The most common one among them is Tyr p 2. However, Tyr p 13 and Tyr p alpha-tubulin are also present. Earlier studies point out that the major allergens of T. putrescentiae greatly co-react with D. pteronyssinus extracts, but that D. pteronyssinus allergens have only partial cross-reactivity with T. putrescentiae extracts
