Table 1.

Lung cellular constituents following intranasal administration of household dust samples containing both chitin and endotoxin.

	Percent Eosinophils Mean (range) 0.4% (0.1–1.1%) p value	Eosinophils/μL Mean (range) 9.1 (0.1–17.7) p value	Total cells Mean (range) 7.9 ^X10⁶ (1.8–15.5^X10⁶) p value
Chitin (ng/μg)	0.018	0.013	0.016
Endotoxin (EU/ml)	0.40	0.044	0.004

P values for mixed multiple linear regression models including chitin and endotoxin, exposure sample treated as a random effects variable (4 dust samples tested in 2 animals; 4 tested solely; 2 PBS controls). All variables log transformed.
