Manifestações dermatológicas desencadeadas por ácaros da família Cheyletidae: relato de caso

Abstract: Resumo: Ácaros da família Cheyletidae são de grande importância na veterinária, por estarem associados com parasitismo em aves e mamíferos. Permanecem, contudo, pouco estudados como fatores etiológicos em dermatites humanas, apesar de serem encontradas referências a esse respeito desde o iní-cio do século 20. O objetivo dos autores foi o de analisar, em paciente de seis meses de idade, um caso clínico de dermatite por ácaros da família Cheyletidae.

Additionally, Cheyletus malaccensis, found in the house dust collected, has already been reported as a predator of Dermatophagoides farinae, which indicates its association with dust mites, as a potential predator to be used in the biological control of dust mites and stored product mites.…”
