- The particle/filter retention of the material is insufficient (measured values: as low as 73%) and the total filtration capacity of the mask is insufficient (measured mean values: as low as 60%). Furthermore, the mask does not fit correctly to the face of the user. Consequently, an excessive amount of particles or microorganisms might pass through the mask; thus, even if combined with other recommended measures, it may not properly protect.
