Occupational immediate-type reactions to locusts - a possible cross-reactivity between desert locusts (Schistocerca gregoria) and migratory locusts (Locusta migratoria)?
Exposure to locusts, which belong to the arthropod phylum, is an underestimated health problem, especially among workers in research facilities exposed to laboratory animals. We describe a rare case of an occupational immediate-type reaction to locusts with a possible cross-reactivity between desert locust (Schistocerca gregaria) and migratory locust (Locusta migratoria)
