Manufacturing improvements produce a dog extract with an equivalent dosage to the effective Acetone Precipitated (AP) Dog extract without precipitate formation.
Spokane, WA, January 16, 2023 – As part of their ongoing commitment to subcutaneous allergy immunotherapy, HollisterStier Allergy introduced their latest product innovation, Ultrafiltered Dog, to the allergy marketplace today.
Ultrafiltered Dog uses an ultrafiltered aqueous extraction process for maximum concentration without precipitate formation. It features the same efficacious dosage as their Acetone Precipitated Dog (AP Dog). AP Dog’s effectiveness in diagnosing and treating dog-sensitive patients has been demonstrated in studies, abstracts, and publications, including Allergy Practice Parameters.

- Up to 50 times the raw material is used to create Ultrafiltered Dog, which is the same as AP Dog.
