{1} - Bacterial Filtration Efficiency (BFE) determined by the modified Greene and Vesley and in vitro test method.
{2} - Particle Challenge Study - measures filter efficiency only against mass median aerodynamic diameter particle. Surgical mask tests were conducted by an independent laboratory following a 3M internal protocol and using a 0.1 micron latex sphere at a flow rate of 28.3 liters per minute. PFE test results are provided for comparing performance of surgical masks under similar laboratory conditions. This does not reflect expected levels of filtration efficiency in actual use conditions nor replace the need to use NIOSH certified respirators if exposed to hazardous airborne contaminants.
A white surgical specialty mask designed to offer the healthcare provider a skin-sensitive mask with a soft, comfortable inner lining. This tie-on, pleated flat mask is designed with a medical grade, non-woven anti-fog strip for fog-free performance.
