The prevalence of asthma has steadily increased during the last decade, probably as the
result of changes in the environment, including reduced microbial exposure during infancy.
Accordingly, experimental studies have shown that deliberate infections with live pathogens
prevent the development of allergic airway diseases in mice. Bacterial extracts are currently
used in children suffering from repeated upper respiratory tract infections. In the present
study, we have investigated whether bacterial extracts, commercially available as Broncho …
