Biological Particles
This respirator can help reduce inhalation exposures to certain airborne biological particles (e.g. mold,
Bacillus anthracis, Mycobacterium tuberculosis
, etc.) but cannot eliminate the risk of contracting
infection, illness or disease. OSHA and other government agencies have not established safe
exposure limits for these contaminants.
