Frequently Asked Questions

A mouse epithelium allergy is an allergic reaction to proteins found in mouse skin, fur, saliva, and urine. These allergens become airborne and can trigger respiratory issues, particularly in individuals working in laboratories or living in rodent-infested areas. Symptoms include sneezing, itchy eyes, nasal congestion, and asthma flare-ups.

Keeping rodents out of your home by sealing cracks and cleaning regularly can help. Using HEPA filters and wearing protective masks in high-exposure areas like research labs can also reduce allergen contact.
