Abstract: Prevalence and incidence of allergic rhinitis have been increasing in the last years in the Asia Pacific countries and for this reason, research on aeroallergen and aeropollinology has also been increasing. The aim of this study was determined morphologic characteristics of Bromus inermis grass pollen. The pollen morphologic characteristics of the Bromus inermis were determined by optic microscopy (Aristoplan, Leitz, Germany). Allergenic protein components of Bromus inermis pollen were purified by the methods of Hames and Richmond. Dry pollen of Bromus inermis has oval shape and concaved on 3 sides. Average length and width of dry pollen of Bromus inermis was 41,5±2,3 µm and 32,3±4,1 µm respectively. These results are consistent with that Gramineae and Poaceae subfamily pollens have oval shapes with length from 22 to 80 µm.
