The Science Behind Allergen Spray

The Science behind Allergy Defender

Chemist developed and verified by the world leader in allergen detection systems

Allergy Defender uses the natural power of minerals

These minerals attract, surround, and dehydrate indoor allergens.

This method controls both airborne and surface allergens to achieve immediate results.

Who is Inbio?

Inbio is recognized as the world leader in allergen exposure assessment

Allergy Defender contracted with Inbio to get lab verified results to ensure our product was safe and effective for allergy sufferers worldwide. The Analysis Method Used:

Multiplex Array for Indoor Allergens (MARIA®) 5-plex

What is MARIA: MARIA is an antibody-based immunoassay method developed by InBio utilizing Luminex xMAP® technology. The method has been validated through an international, multi-center trial, and the percent reduction of allergens is based on allergen concentration measured using the MARIA assay.

The Results for Air & Surface

AIR

Air testing up to 95% to 80% Reduction of Major Allergens*

Based on the results from testing air samples collected from an environmental chamber, Allergen Spray effectively reduces the dust mite, cat, and dog allergens after being sprayed in the air.

Surface

Surface testing up to 99% Reduction of Major Allergens*

Based on the results from surface samples collected from multiple testing procedures, Allergen Spray effectively reduces the number of allergens from dust mite and cockroach matter, and cat and dog dander from surfaces after being treated.

* Both statements apply to the allergens tested, which are representative of the variety of clinically relevant indoor allergens known to contribute to the development and exacerbation of asthma and other allergic conditions.

Indoor Biotechnologies is committed to providing its customers with the highest quality products and services and recognizes the importance and value of an established Quality Assurance program. Indoor Biotechnologies' Analysis Services Laboratory is ISO/IEC 17025:2017 accredited for allergen testing (Perry Johnson Laboratory Accreditation, Inc. Accreditation No.: Certificate No.: 76453. L20-587).

The Power of Minerals

Hypoallergenic & Fragrance Free

The Details

Why Minerals?

Because minerals do not contain any proteins and proteins are the primary cause of an allergic reaction.

Dog, cat, dust mites, pollens, and plant-based products have proteins that can cause allergic reactions. Our minerals contain zero proteins.

What is the Enviornmental Impact?

Early on, we performed a Lifecycle Assessment (LCA) to understand the impacts of our product and its production.

Shipping water is by far the most significant impact which is why we only ship the minerals. We also recommend reusing our bottle and buying the refill packs to be as environmentally friendly as possible. This also reduces plastic and saves money.

The Science behind the Safety

We only use certified 100% food grade and FDA GRAS minerals meaning these ingredients are ultra-safe around and for food production.

Our Allergen Spray never includes any harsh chemicals, petroleum-based ingredients, plant ingredients, fragrances, or essential oils. GRAS refers to substances that are Generally Recognized As Safe by the FDA. This designation is given to substances with a long history of safe use or that are safe through scientific study. Allergen Spray is the safest alternative for allergy control where human, animal, and food contact is likely. Since even water can cause sensitivity to some people, we recommend stepping out of the room after spraying as allergens and dust are dried and pulled out of the air.

The Ingredients

Our Allergen Spray only contains ingredients listed by the FDA as GRAS (generally recognized as safe), meaning it is safe enough to be used in the foods you eat daily, like meat and dairy, and is used in water softening.

Although these grades cost more, the additional purity of our ingredients provides an extra level of protection from possibly hazardous impurities that otherwise might be present.

Our Ingredients: FDA & GRAS pure sodium sesquicarbonate, FDA food grade mineral phosphate salts.

How our Spray Works

Our unique mixture activates with water and, when atomized in a spray, attracts and attaches to allergen molecules and proteins in the air and on surfaces where they bring them down, encapsulate, neutralize them- all with minerals. This creates an invisible protective barrier that prevents allergens from escaping, reducing exposure and creating a cleaner and more allergen-free living space.

Because the product is combined with water to such an extent, its inhalation does not produce skin or lung irritation, has no dry particulates and is perfect for contact internally and externally when used as directed.
