GEMTEK Asks Are You Sleeping With the Enemy?Business Editors/Health or Medical Writers PHOENIX--(BW HealthWire)--April 26, 2000 GEMTEK(R) Products Wednesday announced that those who suffer from exposure to a broad range of common household allergens can rest easier with their new non-staining, non-toxic, laboratory tested line of anti-allergen products, AllerSafe(TM) Dustroy(R). With its new anti-allergen line, GEMTEK(R) is encouraging the consumer "caveat emptor [Latin, Let the buyer beware.] A warning that notifies a buyer that the goods he or she is buying are "as is," or subject to all defects. When a sale is subject to this warning the purchaser assumes the risk that the product might be either defective or ," or buyer beware. GEMTEK(R) President Kim Kristoff stated, "For years, the consumer has been told that tannic acid tannic acid /tan·nic ac·id/ (-ik) a substance obtained from nutgalls, used as an ingredient of dermatologic preparations and formerly used as an astringent. tannic acid n. 1. , benzyl benzoate and boron boron (bōr`ŏn) [New Gr. from borax], chemical element; symbol B; at. no. 5; at. wt. 10.81; m.p. about 2,300°C;; sublimation point about 2,550°C;; sp. gr. 2.3 at 25°C;; valence +3. are the choices to neutralize latent protein allergens from dust mites, cats, dogs, etc. Sadly, most products fail to tell the consumer that extraction cleaning is the only way to completely rid fabrics of allergenicity." "Moreover," he continued, "AllerSafe(TM) is a system that empowers the consumer with critical information about efficacy and persistence, or effective anti-allergen hygiene." The company claims that the use of the AllerSafe(TM) product line as a "system" is an effective method to reduce allergens. AllerSafe(TM) has more than a dozen plant based products from carpet shampoo to laundry detergent and from pet shampoo to a premium protein allergen allergen /al·ler·gen/ (al´er-jen) an antigenic substance capable of producing immediate hypersensitivity (allergy).allergen´ic pollen allergen de-naturing spray.

Reference Laboratories, an independent laboratory that conducted efficacy testing on AllerSafe(TM), reported, "This testing was designed to compare several products that claim to denature de·na·ture v. 1.

To render unfit to eat or drink without destroying usefulness in other applications, especially adding methyl alcohol to ethyl alcohol. 3. or destroy a number of common household allergens. "When major mite allergens were examined in solution, the Dustroy(R) formula proved effective, whereas the tannic acid based formula did not. Additionally, the Dustroy(R) formula was effective against allergens from cats and dogs Cats and Dogs A slang term referring to speculative stocks that have short or suspicious histories for sales, earnings, dividends, etc. Notes: In a bull market analysts will often mention that everything is going up, even the cats and dogs. ."
