Abstract

Cat allergen 1, the major allergen from cats, has been demonstrated to be present in surface washing and in saliva. With the use of an immunohistologic technique with monospecific anti-CA 1, we demonstrated two different sources of the protein, mucous salivary glands and hair roots, where it originates from sebaceous glands.
