Skin Test Devices at a Glance
HollisterStier Allergy’s skin test device systems provide healthcare professionals with a quick, easy setup. Experience an efficient and reproducible testing experience with ComforTen® and Quintip®.
Designed with You in Mind
Our skin test device systems are designed to save you time and money. After receiving feedback from nurses in the allergy field, we designed:
- A translucent tray for easy antigen inspection
- Removable reservoirs to minimize mistakes
- Collars to prevent foreign material and evaporation
- 1.2mm lancet tips with depth control guards for reproducible results and minimal patient discomfort
HollisterStier’s skin test devices produce a 0mm reaction at the negative control site, allowing readings of 3mm+ to read positive.1,2,3,4
