In each patient, history and clinical examination, cutaneous tests, and eosinophil count in nasal mucous membrane were done 30 minutes and 8 hours after the challenge with Dermatophagoides antigen Results showed a significant increase of eosinophils after the challenge (P.006). Significant differences were not discussed between the eosinophil counts obtained 30 minutes and 8 hours after the challenge.
