Airway allergens, also known as respiratory allergens, inhalant allergens, or aeroallergens, are airborne substances that trigger immune responses when inhaled. These allergens—such as dust mites, pollen, mold spores, and animal dander—play a critical role in allergic diseases including asthma, allergic rhinitis, and hypersensitivity reactions.
At Creative BioMart, we provide a comprehensive portfolio of high-quality airway allergen products, including natural extracts and recombinant proteins, designed to support allergy diagnostics, immunotherapy development, and respiratory disease research.

Airway allergens are microscopic particles suspended in the air that can be inhaled into the respiratory tract, where they interact with the immune system and trigger IgE-mediated allergic responses. These allergens are among the most common environmental triggers of respiratory conditions such as asthma and hay fever.
Unlike food allergens, which are ingested, airway allergens primarily affect the nasal passages, bronchi, and lungs. Their small size and airborne nature allow them to penetrate deep into the respiratory system, making them highly relevant for both clinical and environmental studies.
Dust mites (e.g., Dermatophagoides pteronyssinus, D. farinae) are among the most prevalent indoor allergens. Their proteins are major triggers of asthma and perennial allergic rhinitis and are widely used in diagnostic assays and immunotherapy research.
Pollen allergens originate from flowering plants and are a major cause of seasonal allergies. Tree pollen (e.g., birch), grass pollen, and weed pollen (e.g., ragweed) are commonly studied for their strong IgE-binding properties and environmental impact.
Airborne fungal spores from species such as Aspergillus, Cladosporium, and Alternaria contribute to respiratory allergies and hypersensitivity pneumonitis. Mold allergens are particularly important in indoor air quality studies and occupational health research.
Animal-derived allergens, including proteins from cats, dogs, and rodents, are commonly found in indoor environments. These allergens are significant triggers of allergic asthma and are essential for both diagnostic and translational research.

| Allergen Type | Common Sources | Key Characteristics | Clinical Relevance |
|---|---|---|---|
| Dust Mite | Bedding, carpets, upholstery | Persistent indoor presence | Asthma, rhinitis |
| Pollen | Trees, grasses, weeds | Seasonal, wind-dispersed | Seasonal allergies |
| Mold | Indoor damp areas, soil | Spores remain airborne | Respiratory diseases |
| Animal Dander | Pets, laboratory animals | Lightweight, easily dispersed | Indoor allergies |
Airborne allergens vary in particle size, stability, and environmental persistence, all of which influence their ability to trigger immune responses and their suitability for laboratory applications.
